GHANAIAN MOVIE INDUSTRY IS FULL OF JEALOUSY - YVONNE NELSON



Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson, has come out hard on her country’s movie industry over the ill feelings some of the practitioners have for each other.

The actress, who was speaking with Sunyani-based Suncity 97.1 Radio, stated that the Ghanaian industry is full of envious people who try to capitalize on the negativity of others.
She predicted that with the trend of bad thoughts among its practitioners, a time will come when they end up producing just two English movies in a year.
She said, “It looks like there is too much envy in the movie industry. Instead of focusing on building the industry, when something happens and it is negative, they want to capitalise on it.
“It is like everybody wants to suck your blood out. When something is negative then they are happy. It saddens me and that is why we are where we are now. The movie industry is like on one leg. A year will come that we will shoot only two English movies,” she lamented.

Heir to the Afrobeat icon, and international music star, Femi Anikulapo-Kuti has attributed his success to his tutelage under his father, the late Fela Anikulapo-Kuti; first as a trainee, and later as a member of his band. He told The Nation that his father was his first critic, adding that when he played his first composition to his father, he asked how people could dance to it. The singer reminisced, “Fela asked, ‘So how do you want people to dance to this?’ I only thought of the melody when I composed the song, but on speaking to him, I realised that it was important for Africans to be able to dance to the song.”
