HEARTBREAKERS

One question for you. Just one question.

Michael Uchegbu and Mary Lazarus

 

What result do you think the mixture of diesel, kerosene, petrol and an electric spark in an enclosed building  will produce?

Do I hear words like “danger”, “disaster”, or “death” in your replies?

Well, that is how I envision the assemblage of Femi Branch, Nini Wasera, Michael Uchegbu and Mary Lazarus in this riveting soon- to- be aired Mnet/Afriwood Television Movie titled “Heartbreak”.

The movie’s theme of  heartbreak is a potpourri of shattered love and marred perception.  Although, it’s theme is cliché but it’s execution is different from the norm and who better to cast for the role of the powerful firebrand bank manager in love than Femi who came into public consciousness with his effortless, and somewhat annoying portrayal as the spoilt rich psycho son of the tycoon Lord Williams in the TV Series Domino.

Nini Wacera, the Kenyan actress and star of the TV series Kona, gave a good account of herself as Femi’s love interest while trying to come to terms with her husbands betrayal. Michael Uchegbu, the fast rising upcoming actor who headlined the action thriller “Four Crooks and a Rookie” as the leader of a ruthless bank thieves, spiced up the plot with his brilliant portrayal as Femi’s Personal Assistant whom his boss is having a hard time deciding if he is a foe or friend, while he struggles in reassuring his pretty but possesive  and insecured wife played by the talented and steadily rising Mary Lazarus (Desperate Housegirls).
