Liu Xian will always remember the loneliest and bluest of summers when she was 15 years old. When her mother goes to Africa to provide medical aid as a doctor, she is thrown into the care of her father who has been divorced from her mother for many years. Her father’s photo studio is struggling, and he fools around with the widow who works at the front desk all day, ignoring her needs of Xian. She feels that she has become an outcast until Jin Mingmei appears like a ray of shining light and illuminates her lonely life. Mingmei’s wanton youthful vigor attracts Liu Xian and leads her into an unknown and strange world. During this restless summer, the ignorance and impulse of youth leave an unforgettable mark on Liu Xian’s life.

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.
