Color UCLA Student Film, Preserved by the UCLA Film and Television Archive. A short documentary featuring the Yellow Brotherhood, a revolutionary Asian-American group inspired by the Third World Liberation Front and the Black Panther Party.

The documentary also features an Asian-American motorcycle gang and interviews with members about white supremacy and Internment Camps. Possibly filmed at Ats Sasaki shoot pool at Holiday Bowl, a Japanese American bowling alley. Made as an Ethno-Communications film production.
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.
