“The Day The Music Died” follows the decline and fall of The King as told by Joe Esposito, George Klein, Larry Geller, and many others. Featured is a rare interview with Elvis’ physician and private nurse. You’ll hear from music legend Tony Orlando and his premonition he had about Elvis’ death and about thousands of grief-stricken fans who descended on Graceland, upon the passing of The King. In "All The Kings Disciples" no one could have predicted the passing of Elvis Presley in 1977 and the impact his death would have on the fans who had supported him throughout his storied career. After a period of profound grief, they simply carried on…as if he had never left. From the streets of Memphis, to the gates of GRACELAND and beyond. ALL THE KING’S DISCIPLES will give you a glimpse into the very special world of those who have made Elvis Presley their touchstone, their hero, and their life.
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.
