A lost boy in inner turmoil looks for direction on a remote island and encounters a person, who left him a long time ago. A zero budget mumblecore film improvised on the Isle of Skye. About manhood and overcoming generational trauma. "I Came Up Here To Clear My Head" was an improsived shoot on the Isle of Skye with 0 budget, no real crew, the help of our village and our Scottish Timothee Chalamet: upcoming actor Stephen McMillan (Boiling Point). The monologue was written by Tiggy Bayley (who won B3 with her short "Tildypops"). It premiered at the BIFA qualifying Brighton Rocks Intl Film Festival end of June 2024.
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.
