Omoni Oboli
Movie
producer, Omoni Oboli has discussed the awkward behaviours of some
Nigerian fans who have a negative attitude towards locally-made films. Nollywood actress, Omoni Oboli, has shared her experience with some
Nigerian cinema goers and how difficult it is, to convince some of them
to see your movie.
In a chat with Pulseng, she said: "Some people really don’t know how to talk or they just feel like they don’t care.
Sometimes, people say stuff like ‘I don’t watch Nollywood
films.’ ‘Why should I pay to see your film?’ ‘How can I come to the
cinema to watch home video?’ I’m like ‘it’s not home video, there’s a
difference.’ There are some made for cinema Nigerian movies and there
are home video movies.
So, if you’re watching it in the cinema, it’s a made for cinema
Nigerian film. It’s quite difficult convincing some people. Some people
have their minds made up, there’s nothing you’re going to say to them.
They won’t watch your movie.
Some of those people, after not watching your film, will want
to take a picture with you. I'm like 'just buy ticket, go to LA. Once
you get out of the airport, Brad Pitt will be waiting for you, go and
take picture with him.
You came to see his film, you didn't see my film. Why do you want to take a picture with me?"
