Vibing My Filmmaker-Paul Campbell

Posted on September 10, 2015 Comments Off on Vibing My Filmmaker-Paul Campbell

“Remember, we grease di engine, we run tings”, a very famous line used from one of

his films. No, pressure, I’m going to say it of course, its Paul Campbell from his role

as a police officer in the film ‘Third World Cop’.

 

I have always held my ground to say that as it relates to Jamaican actors in films;

Paul has always been my favorite. The conviction in his face from each role, takes

you way out of the TV screen, the feeling brings reality to you and emotion you get

when watching him. I am not going to lie, when I watched my favorite Jamaican

film ‘Dancehall Queen’ where he played the well known gangster, ‘Priest’, I had

nightmares for weeks…lol… I was convinced his character was beyond real. I’ve

made it my duty to watch all the films he has been in and let me just say; I am still

impressed, I still keep watching over and over as though it’s my first time viewing.

How enthused I was to know that we could have our own International Jamaican

actor a part of the Iphias International Film Festival. I can tell you that his dedication

to the stage and to the big screen is an inspiration to many of us Jamaican.

 

Paul finds it necessary to keep youths motivated and help them develop their

camera skills. Tell you a secret; I heard Paul sings, I won’t even say how I feel when I

know a man has a voice of an angel. Ok, enough about my rants of infatuation. You

want to be as captivated or amused about him as I am, visit the Iphias International

Film Festival to be entertained from all angles.
