Abby Brennan refuses to accept the news that her sister Beth is dying. Her last hope: an experimental and expensive treatment she believes could save her sister’s life. To pay for this, Abby takes a job as consulting geologist for a Georgian uranium mine. When she chances upon a rare and mysterious meteorite fragment in the remote taiga, she thinks she has found the golden ticket to Beth’s cure. But on her flight home, the helicopter crashes and she is stranded in the relentlessly cold wilderness. There is a beacon of hope; John, an American pilot whose plane was brought down in the harsh conditions, guides her in his direction through the radio. As Abby fights her way across an unforgiving landscape, she gradually realises that John is not who he claims to be and that he has an ulterior motive…

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.
