Veteran Nollywood actress, Patient Ozokwor has revealed that her fans are the reason she is WICKED!
Speaking with Saturday Tribune, Ozokwor talked about some of her movie roles saying:
“Sometimes, I cry when I watch some of the characters I had played in
movies at home. I just thanked God it wasn’t the real me that was
involved, but a character.
“Nearly all the movies where I played wicked roles made me cry because I remember what that character had done to somebody.
“I do these jobs to the best of ability because I want to sit down at home, watch and cry over what I’m doing to people.
“Two
of the roles that caused me the most tears were: one role where I
seized the feeding bottle of a month-old-baby and threw it away.
“I
wept profusely after that scene that the director had to stop shooting
until I was able to control myself. If someone had done it in real life,
I would have exposed the fellow to the world to see.
“There was another one where I went to take my sister’s daughter
from the village, what I did to the girl, if any human being can do it
to a fellow human being, I don’t know what God would do to that person
in turn. I met her in the kitchen, beat her so much that she fell down
the stairs, rolled down and died from broken head and pains all over.
“I’d
been playing wicked roles but those two movies are exceptionally
horrible. I doubt that any human being would do that to anyone.”
On the morality of her roles:
“When I play the role of a bad woman, I see myself at that instance as a
mirror through which I want society to see and appreciate the fact that
it is not good to be bad. This is the reason I do it with so much
passion that it becomes almost believable. I also see such roles as an
opportunity to minister to lost and wicked souls that jealousy, hatred,
envy and all the likes can only bring one to ruins.”
