Everyone is creative in one way or another. But for some, their journey reaches a fork in the road where they must leave their old, safe life behind and venture into an unfamiliar and risky territory. They are not afraid to take chances and against all odds, they dare to pursue their dreams just to make this world a little bit more beautiful to live in. Every day they wake up without thinking what to eat, or how to pay their bills - they just want to create. And that's why they inspire others. Being a classic Motown artist and having decades of a successful music career, William Goldstein discovers that he posses a very rare talent. A talent of creating instant composition. And that pushes him to start his search for an answer to a very puzzling question - what is A Soul of An Artist?
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.
