Thread: Ti Oluwa Ni Ile is Tunde Kelani's Classic

The script was perfect and the casting was also perfect and TK was at the zenith of his genius when he made the movie. And I would be glad to see TK dub it in the major local and international languages to increase the appreciation of this classic work of Art in the history of Nigerian movies.

Students of the history of Nigerian movies should study Ti Oluwa Ni Ile (God owns all the land).

WAS IT THE ONE BABA WANDE FEATURED IN THAT HAS THE PART 1-3?

yeah!!! and dat was where Dele Odule also made his name

Now, this is one movie that I've watched so many times that I've lost count. And each time I find myself watching it again, it seems as if I'm watching it for the first time.

its a must watch baby. part 1, 2 and 3. i first watched it the first time it came out like 5-6yrs ago and now i had the opportunity to watch it again. it was real cool.

I am seeing more mileage in the book adaptation of Ti Oluwa Ni Ile, because of the philosophical lessons of the story. And the book would be of immense benefit to our children.

For those who have not seen it,here's the jacket from the movie review section,
TI OLUWA NI ILE

me a no tink say i don see dis one o did it come out before or after asewo tore mecca because that was my first nigerian film ever and the only one i can still remember

"Asewo to re Mecca" must have come out some years after this movie was out. In fact, if I remember vividly, it came out right about the time "Owo Blow" came out.

owo blow is that old? asewo mecca and owo blow were the movies that made me fall in love with yoruba flicks and ayo ni mofe too

its just so interestin dat d movie is still sellin till now, just watched it recently after a long tyme, classic movie

I have heard a lot about this movie before I saw it So when I got to naija I went to look for it. Somebody 419 me. Took my money and never deliver .But I am happy I got it at the end of day at Oshodi market and it was worth my trouble. And I dont loan it out. That is how good it was to me.

No, Asewo to re mecca was way before Ti Oluwa N'ile.
