Ace actor Ekow Blankson has singled out his time on the set of 'Checkmate' as the best moment on the screen.
He said the director of the movie, Shirley Frimpong-Manso, contributed to the great moment he had on location and set.
Speaking to YFM’s Rev. Erskine on the Y Leaderboard Series, he explained that, “At that time I was used to doing things my way.
"I was used to suggesting moves, suggesting delivery, changing dialogue when I thought it was right but when I got onto that set, I really got challenged.
"Here, you could find that the director knew what she was about and I realised that those were better than I suggested”.
Ekow noted that indeed the work put into the movie paid off as people commended him for his role in that movie.
The movie, ‘Checkmate,’ was produced by Sparrow Productions and directed by Shirley Frimpong-Manso.
The movie which was released about 10 years ago won the hearts of many for the high standard it exhibited.
It starred Nadia Buari, Naa Ashorkor Mensah-Doku, Ekow Blankson, KSM, with new entrants Senanu Gbedawo, Khareema Aguiar and Kwaku Boateng.
