DARIMA'S DILEMMA

Darima's Dilemma was long overdue for my review. The movie features actors like Majid Michel, IK Ogbonna, Mbong Amata and Diana Yekini.

I belong to the generation that grew up reading Mills and Boons but that's a story for another day.  Scarlet Thread had me feeling all types of way - angry, resentful... I felt like punching someone when I read The Scarlet Thread the very first time. I think I read it a couple of times after that. The story was that good in my opinion. Like how do people have gold in their hands and end up pursuing garbage? Sierra Madrid married her childhood sweetheart - Alejandro Luis Madrid
