The best solution is just to keep it locked up in the drawers and wait for the right people to take control of nollywood.Something that most talented writers in naija are currently and wisely doing.
vince, f
or how long will one lock up good stories...a gold fish, they say has no hiding place..in this case, a good story...
some people have done well to produce good stories...i can count a few...
for instance...i jioned this forum because i want to corespond with the director, or producers of b4 the vow, or better still, the writer...i watched it recently...couldnt believe one could make a story out of almost nothing...i personally want to know how...hope it wasnt copied....because i watch some movies, and it is a replica of foreign films...
anyway,let us not encourage good writers to lock up their scripts...t hey must come forth...it will help the industry grow...
i am an aspiring writer and i know that nollywood has great stories...
take worlds apart for instance...so many movies have been shot around same theme...but this one stood out...why? lthe ittle details, that are so often overlooked...
anyway...lets hope for the best...
as for me, i encourage the professionals and the good storytellers to come out of their hiding places...
amen
