The next big one is Guilty Pleasures. It's already out in America but will be hitting the cinemas in Nigeria from the 29th of November. It is a must watch. Not just because it's from Emem Isong and Desmond Elliot, both of whom are my family(lol, yes, I know I am name dropping) but because it's really great. It thrills you from start to finish. If you don't watch it for anything else, you must watch it for Ramsey's Stellar performance. He deserves an oscar for that one, he was at his best.

Nollywood takes a leap!
I saw Through the Glass. I liked it but what I liked more was Stephanie's Okereke's tenacity. I doff my heart for her. She has really done well. Survived a near death accident, went to New York film School, made a film and saw it through cinemas. It grossed 10 million, the highest any Nigerian film had ever done. And then came the Figurine, that just left me feeling good for a long long time. Well done Afolayan and the entire team of Figurine. Good job. Not just the movie but the entire package, He thought out of the box, took a big risk but it paid off. He has taken Nollywood to a whole new level. The movie is still in cinemas and is expected to gross even more than Stephanie's film.

I love what is happening to Nollywood now! Its like a wind of progress is just blowing...it can only get better! I hear another film 'IJE:The Journey is set to hit the screens soon. The movies are so different from each other so there's no basis for comparison. One is action/adventure the others are romantic comedies...brilliant! Go Nollywood Go!
my goodness,I keep hearing about Araromire (Figurine) and I can't find it. I truly want to see it.
Hope all is well
