Recorded in 2004 at Ceasers Gauteng (now Emperor’s Palace) Snaaks Genoeg was part of Casper de Vries's tour of South Africa’s major cities, with additional trips to Namibia and England. It was the first Afrikaans show staged at the famous London Palladium on the West End, and every ticket – including standing room – was sold out in advance. The first part of Snaaks Genoegfeatures many other popular Casper characters, including the oversexed Oom Kallie Marie and retired hooker Patience April. The show is a stand-up routine in which he pokes fun at Charlize, reality TV and casinos, and highlights the differences between South Africans and Americans.
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.
