ACTOR BANKOLE WILLIAMS

 Bankole Williams  is one of the most versatile actors in the Sierra Leone movie industry.

Bankole Williams has always enthralled his audience with amazing movies and short skits. I have always been a fan of Bankole Williams ever since I first saw his debut movie Matamoi. Bankole started as stuttering in the film industry and matured as an actor as he did more and more movies. His idea of reading the script first and then selecting the role is what appeals me about him.

Bankole Williams is not just a volatile actor but a director with a vision different than the others. His movies are usually ones with an underlying message rather than having mindless entertainment. Some of his movies which have received wide acclaim from the film industry and beyond are matamoi,Njuyea, Peahunya, The wicked shall perish

His movie ‘Matamoi was a movie with which many could associate themselves as it was made very realistic. The aforementioned movies show that he is one of the rare actors/directors who believe in intelligent filmmaking. He is the actor who does just a couple of films each year unlike other actors. He never attends award functions and claims that such awards are superficial in nature and lack credibility.
