Original Title:
The New York Miseries Part I (Sheila)
Ratings / Certifications:
N/A
Runtime: 15
An aging, but still lovely woman in New York shoots her last shot and misses. Death is fingered as the last romantic. The devil dies of fantastic, horrible boredom. God toys with atheism, and is disappointed. Memory, desire, love, hate, life and death, reality and illusion incredibly fucked up and entangled. How an awful angel of death bites our respective clits and cops our respective heads accordingly and how he makes is bleed and how we like it and ask for more and how he gives us more and how he fucks us in our poor asses just as we bend over to pick up the Jew-Fat soap bar of love, and how we shriek and squeal and the feathers fall like blacksnow, and how he calls it love and how we believe him, and how it all turns out to be too true."

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.
