Actress, Bimbo Ademoye, has joined her other colleagues, especially Yvonne Jegede to call out filmmakers in the country who keep on taking every movie to the cinema.
According to the talented thespian, not every movie was worthy of
being shown in cinemas, but only greedy filmmakers take substandard
movies to the big screen.
In an interview with Sunday Scoop, she said, “I am a
perfectionist. I am the type of person that can make a movie worth
millions and would still think it is not cinema worthy. I am not one to
decide what film makes it to the cinema but I can tell you films that
should not make it to the cinemas. Don’t disrespect that space. Don’t
say because you have cameras and actors, you just take it and let people
waste their money, time and energy at the cinemas. Some movies are
better watched at home. That is being greedy. At the end of the day, the
filmmakers end up stressing themselves because Nigerians know what is
good. They would not tell people to go and watch a movie that is not
good.”
Wondering if Bimbo Ademoye has ever been disappointed at not
winning an award, she said, “Of course, I am human. I had anticipated
winning an award twice. But, has that stopped me? Absolutely not! Would I
keep working harder? Absolutely yes.”
Reacting
to the notion that she had had a swift rise in Nollywood,
she said, “I
don’t know if I have an answer to that. I would just say I am doing my
thing. I am on my lane and I am going to keep going. I am not stopping
anytime soon. Am I where I want to be? Absolutely not. Am I thankful for
where I am? Definitely.”
Dear Affy Star actress also stated that she considered every day to be a high point. She said, “Every day is a high point. Getting the Eko Star Film and TV Awards was huge. It was not even a nomination but a recognition. Every day is a step further for me.”
