This long awaited Hollywood/Nollywood flick ‘Black November’ by Jeta Amata is now showing in LA and NY Theaters, iTunes, Amazon, and is currently being seen via Video On-Demand (VOD) on all TV cables and Satellite across the United States.
We received some favorable feedback from those that attended the L.A.
premiere and they have all commented that this movie is the BEST NIGERIAN FILM produced thus far, and
most of the Nigerians that were present at the premiere also said they were
just amazed that the production of this great movie was done by one of their
own.
One of the feedbacks at the premiere came from Nigerian Hollywood-based
Director/Producer Pascal Atuma, and
here is what he said while hailing Jeta Amata and the cast and crew of Jeta’s
new film “Black November”. “They did the dream. Jeta
did without a doubt what no other Nigerian filmmaker, home or abroad, dead or alive has done before. He pushed the
boundaries and changed the game. I am impressed and inspired; it is a new dawn
for Nollywood,” these were his words after attending
the premiere at the Arenas Cinema in Hollywood a few days ago.
Atuma continued by saying
“The film is in the class of Hotel
Rwanda and Last King of Scotland. From the writing, to the directing, to
the acting, the message behind it, production quality (picture and sound),
everything was top notch. I was very proud to be a Nigerian in that theater. The actors in the film were fantastic
especially Robert Peters, Mbong Amata, Hakeem Kae Kazim, Akon, Wyclef, just all
of them, it was beautiful, wonderful cast, a great film. They made me proud. I
encourage everyone to support the film, go out and see the film.”
And when we asked him
what he thinks other Nigerian/African filmmakers should take away from this
great production, he said: “Inspiration and learning how to tell our stories
at this level so that the world will see it. Learning how to take time and make
a film, Jeta took his time and made a film here, it is fantastic and the other
film makers should learn from Black November.”
This is a must-watch film for all
Africans, as the movie stars Mbong Amata, Akon,
Wyclef Jean, Mickey Rourke, Kim Bassinger, Anne Heche, Sarah Wayne, Vivica A.
Fox, Hakeem Kae Kazim, Razaaq Adoti, Fred Amata, O.C. Ukeje, Nse Ekpe-Etim, Robert
Peters &
other stars.
This is such a big achievement for the African film maker Jetta Amata, as we learnt that this
film is being distributed by E-One
Entertainment, the same distribution company in charge of Hunger Game & Twilight Saga, just
to name a few.
Again, to watch this movie look for it on iTunes, or check your
Video on-Demands, and the film will be released in Nigerian Cinemas on the 30th of January, 2015.
