During the peaceful period of Song and Liao, Tang Ziyan, an agent originally trained by the secret organization "Phoenix Fire Army," is placed in the Imperial City Department in Beijing. While Tang Ziyan wanted to quietly quit and have a peaceful remainder of her life with her husband Zhou Qian, her husband was taken away by the Phoenix Fire Army to threaten Tang Ziyan. She now has a new mission set by the army: To assassinate the visiting envoy of the Northern Dynasty. During this period, Zhou Qian'an was shot and killed by the Phoenix Fire Army and Tang Ziyan is determined to take down the Phoenix Fire Army. She pretended to not be wavered and continued to plan the next step of the assassination plan, but is surprised to find that the target is just by her side. In the end, Tang Ziyan along with the envoy work together to defeat the Phoenix Fire Army, quelling a scourge and returning peace to Beijing.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
