When a hungover Milo discovers a kilogram of cocaine in his recycling bin, his life takes a dangerous turn. Realising the gravity of his situation, Milo launches into a frantic mission to return the illicit substance to its rightful owner: the formidable kingpin, Big Addy, who has issued a deadly ultimatum to his own dealer, Riz, if the brick isn't recovered. Just when they thought their marathon stakeout couldn't get any longer, a duo of stubbornly unavailing police officers find themselves thrust into the midst of escalating turmoil — could this be a breakthrough in their pursuit of Big Addy? With friends partying recklessly and cronies closing in, Milo's once quiet life spirals into chaos. In this gritty action-comedy short film inspired by British noughties indie cinema, survival depends on quick thinking, sheer luck, and whether these bumbling cops can finally muster the nerve to outwit Big Addy and bring him to justice.

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.
