Another Shirley Frimpong Manso Movie: ‘Love or Something Like That’ + The Trailer…

Love or Something Like This
Love or Something Like That

Without Shirley Frimpong Manso and her Sparrow Productions’ team, I wonder what most of us quality African movies lovers would have to look forward to, considering the huge existing gap between her productions and that of the others.

If we are to go by convention, the rate at which Shirley Frimpong Manso keeps releasing movies should have a ‘negative’ bearing on the quality of her productions but over the years, we’ve seen she keeps getting better with each production.

We thought POTOMANTO was the best (no wonder it has already received 9 nominations at this year’s African Movie Academy Awards) but Devil in the Detail’ took us to a whole different level and now ‘Love or Something Like That’ is here to take us even higher.

Shirley Frimpong Manso’s latest-Love or Something Like That features multiple award-winning Ghanaian actor-John Dumelo, Joselyn Dumas, Christabel Ekeh, Nigeria’s O.C Ukeje, Nana Mensah and as usual, there will be a host of talented actors…

Love or Something Like Thattells a poignant story about moving on when there’s no light at the end of the tunnel. In the movie, a young surgeon’s chance meeting with her ex-boyfriend throws her world into absolute chaos when she makes a horrible discovery about her past and what could be the end of a great career, and beautiful marriage.

The movie which is produced by Ken Attoh and directed by Shirley Frimpong Manso will be premiered on 17th April, 2014 at the National Theatre (6:30pm & 8:30pm). You can purchase a ticket at Koala, Airport Shell or the National Theatre…

Check out the trailer below…

  1. another blantant story copy. Tyler Perrys temptations staring Lance Gross and Leila Djansi’s Northern Affair where John Dumelo is a surgeon and does surgery. Shameful.
    Chris, Shirley lobbied for the Amma. I was there at the event.

    • We all know who you are.. Shame on you 411bully, You so pathetic, Well keep hating while Shirley reaches the sky. What a waste of sperms, please advice your fan Leila to bring out better story lines to viewers so she can be nominated as well as shirley’s

    • When will Africans stop hating and celebrate the achievements of those we are blessed with rather? This woman is doing great and she is the only giving us good consistent movies yet you are here writing all this about her?

      Talking about Leila, her movie titles are not even original let alone the storyline. There about 3 other movies called Ties that Bind before hers and being all original why couldn’t she come up with a unique name since you saying that is all she is about? Same for Sinking Sands.

      Stop this ah aba

    • to 41 bully, stories circulate freely but what we look out for is how the roles are played and the words used. words and phrases that touch our souls because of our cultural background

  2. another blantant copy job from Shirley. Tylr Perry’s temptations and Leila Djansi’s Northern Affair. what a shame. Chris, if Potomanto is that good, why is it not at any major festival?
    stop deleting my comments. Devil in the detail was a copy of Chloe, a hollywood movie. now this one. Tyler Perry’s temptation was about a happily married woman who had an affair and contacted AIDS. Using the Leila Djansi combination too. Jd and JD and the surgeon angle. she needs to stop jealousing and make original films. picture quality and nice location does not mean a good movie. yabre

    • Really? My question is how many movies has Leila got to her name and which stories did she invented from heaven. If you can’t tell a story better n she does must you be here hiding under duff name to hate her

    • Have you seen Chloe though? Devil in the details has nothing in common with Chloe and from what I can see of this trailer, the only resemblance to Tyler Perry’s “Temptation” is the other-guy aspect and the disease. Mind you, the movie Temptation didn’t capitalize on the disease, it was more about the process by which she fell out of love with her husband and into another man’s arms. 

      It might not be entirely original but it isn’t always about the structure being unoriginal but the main idea/theme.

        • But she’s right tho..c’mon guys. As soon as I saw this trailer I said to myself “c’mon Shirley,u can do better…this is a total rip off of Tyler’s temptation”..then I came to the comments section and its the first comment I saw. Nollywood reinvented u might be right about the “structure” but a trailer or commercial is suppose to sell and most importantly originality being the key word…this is too obvious,even if I copy another man’s work,I’d do better with the editing if I want people to buy what im selling. I’ve seen temptation so seeing this trailer didn’t entice me a bit cos I feel like I’ve seen it before. U should understand where she’s coming from,she might have been too harsh getting her point across but she speaks the truth and attacking someone for speaking their mind is totally uncalled for.

      • Thanks for putting her at her place. Out of hatred or whatever, people will come up with all manner of lies. This woman is doing great she needs to be supported not to come up with unnecessary excuses to run her down

  3. chris kissing shirley’s ass as usual…couldnt u have just done this story without the unnecessary intro? jeez… the rest of yall have to stop hating just for hating

    Reply
    • So you wanted him to insult her or what? He writes what he wants as you have just also written what you want. I guess you just hate that he is acknowledging how good the woman is right?

      Reply
    • NANA MENSA SHUT U’R STINKY BREATH… CHRIS IS JUST AMAZED ABOUT HER GOOD WORK. SHIRLEY IS THE OUTSTANDING DIRECTOR SO FAR AND WE ALL SHOULD BE PROUD OF THE GOOD THING SHE’S DOING RATHER THAN THROWING INSULTS AT HER. IF YOU DON’T HAVE NONE TO CONTRIBUTE GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE.

  4. Shirley is full of surprises. She must be always working and what I like about her is you don’t really hear anything and all you hear is a new movie is out which is always great too 🙂

  5. why is it that whenever an article is about Shirley people keep mentioning Leila’s name? this movie is about Shirley so let her shine and leave that ”loud mouth” Leila out.

  6. see me se wahala o. i am no afraid of GC or shirley. if I have something to say abut her, i will say it with my id 411bully or hollywood411. una never fit commot Leila Djansi name from ur mofs abi? is she the only African who lives in Los Angeles? ask Majid, or Frank Raja, John Dumelo, Pascal Atumah, Jackie and co how many people come to the parties when come to LA more than 1000 people. leila is not competeting with shirley. they are all doing their own thing. i only comment here when you insult her for no reason but jealosy. if there is any enemy between them, we the dog that came home with sheet on his leg. ghanacelebrities.
    why not go to facebook or twitter and ask Leila Djansi or abuse her woman to woman? fear catch you?

    • You have a point there but this article is supposed to be Shirley not Leila talking about competition i think you are the one who started with all these comparison talking about Leila is this and that. Well next time there’s an article about Shirley do not create any misunderstanding between the two. We in here for Shirley not Leila, when there’s an article about Leila you can start with the contribution. You could have said something about the movie without mentioning of Leila’s name but guess you failed.

  7. Can’t wait to see this on Sparrow Station. John and Joselyn seem to have great chemistry.

    I love Nana Mensah in ‘An African City’. The girl is a natural actress, she does it effortlessly. I hope her star continues to rise.
