The theatre lights go down, the curtain opens, and the dancers appear on stage to perform a spectacular show with feathers, crystals and sequins, against dazzling scenery and with original French music. Through four lively and poetic scenes, the Moulin Rouge takes you on a journey into space and time: from the Garden of the Moulin Rouge back in 1889 to the wild regions of Indonesia, taking you through the joyful and colorful atmosphere of a circus, the Féerie "revue" is full of surprises. For these two hours of enchantment, you will be part of the effervescence of a Parisian fete, symbolized by the most iconic dance of the Moulin Rouge, the world-famous French Cancan. "Welcome to the Moulin Rouge!"
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.
