Ace actor Gavivina Tamakloe has openly confessed in an interview with
Flex newspaper in his office in Accra that he’s not a fan of movies.
Surprised? "Movies produced lately depict same storylines
and casts. The movies are so boring and predictable that I can't spend
time to watch them fully. Sometimes, I have to view the montage and cast
names then forward to the end.” Mr. Tamakloe craftily sensing the next
question would be “Why then, are you into acting?” was quick to add that
he does act just to earn income.
In a question as to whether he
loved Kumawood movies, he responded that he knows nothing about the said
name yet but revealed that Kumasi movies are improperly scripted.
“Only
acts, scenes, props and locations are recorded, without dialogues. The
rest is improvisation. Hence, the talkative of the day becomes the star.
Therefore, the actors turn to make humorous and verbally insulting
comments in order to have more to say.
Movies portray our real lives.
Hence, the emotions related to every instance must be displayed
rightfully. It shouldn't just be like making audience laugh all the time
even when there's even a tragic incident in a scene. Juju and witchcraft
should not always be given a standard in our culture. Meanwhile, that is
not the only means of telling our stories,” he added.
Are we going nowhere to fast?
_Merci Beaucoup_
