Leila Djansi back again and this time, she is saying that the movie- A Northern Affair which she recently directed falls below her known standard—and she is blaming it all on the budget.
In fact, what baffles some of us is; didn’t she know about the budget of the movie before taking up the job? If you have a standard and you are keen on maintaining it, you have to go all out there to do so—including not taking up jobs which will throw you back because of the budget.
Anyway, Leila has launched a blog where she rants and dissects certain issues so as her latest, she has written a piece explaining how the low budget of ‘A Northern Affair’, made the movie fall below her standard of work.
And according to her, some people close to her even said the movie was not like her style of work when it came out…
I guess Leila Djansi has to give props to those film-makers who are able to make great movies despite the financial holdback.
Read excerpts from what Leila had to say about ‘A Northern Affair’ which features John Dumelo, Joselyn Dumas, Jon Germaine and others…
Interestingly, the movie won almost all the awards at the 2013 Ghana Movie Awards…
