Ghanaian Actors Are Comedians In Disguise – Ekow Blankson

Ekow Blankson comes for the movie industry.

Veteran actor, Ekow Blankson makes comments about the current state of the movie industry. Furthermore, he is the current Managing Director of TV Africa. He starred in movies like “Diary of the Black Hustler”, “Checkmate”, “The Intruder”, “My Mother’s Heart” and “Frozen Emotions”. Also, others include “A Woman’s Desire”, “The Secret Burden”.

However, it seems he’s not impressed with the current crop of actors and actresses on our screens. Moreover, he described them as extremely boring and “jokers”. This is in comparison to the previous generation of movie stars.

Ekow Blankson on movie industry

“I think that our new crop of actors are just jokers. Unfortunately they aren’t as exciting and real as people have done in the past. Sometimes it gets a bit worrying watching them perform.”

Furthermore, he offered his opinion on Kumawood. He described them as nothing but a “concert party” with no direction.

“I think the Kumasi movie industry is a different form of film making. It’s actually concert party where you don’t prepare a script and follow. They are given pointers and they have to create out of it and that is the concert party style and they have enhanced it into film.”
