Subject: Proper Credit to poem in movie

Coach Carter movie producers,

I thoroughly enjoyed and applaud the Coach Carter movie.  A lot of our
students saw it over the weekend.

When Cortez (I think) talked about his deepest fear I knew I recognized it,
but couldn't place it immediately.  I stayed through all the trailers that
meticulously credited everyone, except the poem that was read.  I knew our
students would remember the poem and wanted to put it up in the library.

I found the poem in the book Chicken Soup for the Soul.  It's "Our Deepest
Fear" by Marianne Williamson, from her book A Return to Love.

Shouldn't it be properly cited and acknowledged in the movie?
