Katie is a poignant short drama that delves into the enigmatic world of dreams and reality. The film follows Charlie, a young man who, one night, dreams of a beautiful woman named Katie. In his dream, Katie tells Charlie that she is real and urges him to find her when he wakes up. Intrigued and haunted by the vividness of the dream, Charlie sets out on a quest to determine if Katie truly exists or if she is merely a figment of his imagination. As Charlie navigates through his day, he encounters various people who either help or hinder his search. The journey leads him to confront his deepest desires and fears, and he begins to question the nature of reality and the power of dreams. The line between what is real and what is dreamt becomes increasingly blurred as Charlie gets closer to finding the truth about Katie.

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.
