Kumawood Movies Are Disgracing Ghana & Destroying The Akan Culture Says David Dontoh…REALLY?

It seems the slating of Kumawood movies will not end anytime soon. After Ghanaian actor-Ekow Smith Asante’s outburst that 90% of Kumawood movies are destroying the Ghanaian movie industry few weeks ago, David Dontoh is also on the NECK on Kumawood.

According to David Dontoh, “…Kumawood movies are not only destroying the film industry but the Ghanaina culture and the Akan culture. Unfortunately they are not using the right people who know how to make the films well because they are not using the universal film language”.

He continued by saying; “what foreigners ask when watching our movies is that ‘oh so these people are they that erratic? Don’t they have sense to tell sensible things to people? Is that how every Ghanaian behaves?

A lot of people outside think that every Ghanaian is a comedian because that is what they have been portraying in our movies. What you tell them is what they think about….

Why is it that the whole world everybody thinks Americans are very strong, powerful, disciplined, and authoritative human beings? It’s because of what you have seen Americans of in films. You don’t see an American and think he is poor because they don’t tell you they are poor in their movies,”

He added “And then…unfortunately, they are not using the right people who know how to make the film well in making those films. That is why in as much as they are destroying our culture, they are also destroying the industry because they are not using the universal film language in making the films.”

Not sure why the sudden STRAIGHT TALK, but I am certain some industry people are not happy with Kumawood—probably, Kumawood is putting them out of work!

  2. If uncle David speaks about it then something isn’t right ad he can’t go wrong…he gave reasons as to why…so it’s either they take notes to what he said or continue to destroy the industry…I remember when he also mentioned the kumawood awards as unnecessary, they didn’t listen and went ahead with it….to be continued

  3. I dont really understand why Our shadow Ghanaian stars dont want to appreciate. Is it neccessary for us to be told what to do by foreigners? If the want to see and know our culture then should better pay to see them as we have been travelling to see them and not from movies
