Actress and filmmaker, Genny Uzoma, has bemoaned the rate at which Nigerian movies are showed in cinemas. She told, “Most certainly, not all movies should make it to the cinemas. I’m in the business, so I understand how filmmakers feel. Nobody makes movies with the intention of it being crappy but sometimes, it turns out that way due to some reasons such as sound, lighting, storyline or acting.
“If it turns out that way, there are other platforms to market and distribute our movies. We should not turn the cinema to a play thing or a joke, and constantly have the audience or reviewers insulting our movies.These things should be looked into by filmmakers and movie distributors. On the other hand, we are also improving and I know we will definitely get there, though politics will also always come into play.
On how she has been able to stay away from controversies, Uzoma said, “I would not say I have the cleanest slate. I guess I don’t make lots of noise, thereby not attracting too much attention to myself. However, that might not be such a great idea in the entertainment industry because people thrive on controversies. One would also need to be noticed in order to make a head way in showbiz. That’s why it is said that ‘all publicity is good’.
Uzoma also stated that she did not believe in love at first sight. She added, “It happens, I guess. For me, I think it is more of lust or physical attraction at first sight. I may have said ‘yes’ whole heartedly if I was asked this question 10 years ago. But now, I know that there is more to love than just meeting someone for the first time. And, love is even not enough most times .”
