Shirley Frimpong Manso, the award-winning movie producer reputed to have �iron balls�, has said she is in no mood to tolerate critics who have opined that her 10-chapter �Adams Apples� should have been just one movie. Shirley has told News-One she would not beg people to watch �Adams Apples� and those who do not like the movie should simply not watch it! Quite uncharacteristic of her, Shirley almost flared up when News-one sought her view on the debate of whether or not �Adams Apples� would have been better off as a single movie rather than a 10 episode series. �I don�t know what to say to that. This is what I did. I can�t answer that question. People do a dress and make it short, they make it long, and they make it whatever. It is an art like somebody does a painting, you understand. It is from my point of view, if you like it, watch it. �If you don�t like it, you don�t have to watch it. I am not trying to please one particular person. People enjoy good entertainment, people will buy it and go home and watch it. I think people should stop asking the question and just let people enjoy what they are enjoying because it is what it is. �It is a ten-chapter movie, may be next time we will do a 30-chapter movie. If it works, it works. It doesn�t, hey it is no big deal,� she said in a tone that clearly showed she was pissed off at the question. She was speaking to News-One in a short interview on Monday evening at the Silver Bird Cinema after �Adams Apples� Chapter 4 was premiered for the media and sponsors.
