It's been a minute, folks. Hope you're holding up okay in the lockdown. The pandemic has necessitated that we do any and all things and that includes all the channels on DStv, even the terrible ones; cue - African Magic Epic...shoot me already!
Anyway, this evening, the movie Native Girl came up and apart from the descriptive name, what caught my attention and held it was the director's name - Yul Edochie. (Ahem, a few of us fancy his gravelly voice).
He's a great actor though, and this was the first time I was seeing him as director, I was really interested in the movie.
Except, when the movie began, I got distracted by another person, the herione - Judy Austin. She was phenomenal as the native girl who could only speak Ibo language despite her absolute beauty.
Brief description: Yul Edochie played Uchenna, a business man in the US whose mom wants grandkids and therefore introduces a woman to him on phone. Said woman is so beautiful he approves his mother's move to carryout the marriage rites. Imagine his shock when he returns and discovers that his beautiful wife couldn't speak a lick of English. Uchenna treated her badly.
It was hilarious. Yul did very good. And Judy blew my mind so much I had to Google her. I was shocked to find out she produced the movie.
This is a movie to watch, guys.
Don't thank me.
Love and Light.
Ciao!
Until the next movie .
