A girl (Margarethe) walks through the park with her father and leaves a note for her loved one (Rüdolph) saying that she loves him too, but that he must settle things with her father. When asked, the father reacts by telling Rüdolph that he will give his daughter only to an officer. In the next indoor scene his daughter is sick, and Cupid comes along and whispers something in the father’s ear that makes him very happy. In the final scene of the fragment we see the father in a room, sleeping on a chair next to a baby when Cupid enters. The ending is missing. The setting and clothes are in the 18th-century French aristocratic style.– Elif Rongen-Kaynakçi
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.
