In "Mienai Koi no Hanabi," Kana Kojima is a 27-year-old dental assistant living in Tokyo. A depressed girl who has delusions while denying her fateful encounter. One summer day, Kana visits Fukuoka for work and meets a tall, handsome, medical consultant, Hiroki Watanabe, who she becomes interested in on their first encounter. Kana spends the night on a drive around the city in Hiroki's car. Escorted by a man from Fukuoka, Hiroki, Kana has an emotion she has never experienced. "I wish the night didn't end ..." After the end of the night, they never met again. The only thing they did was exchange one email the next day. However, her thoughts for Hiroki did not go away. Two years later, summer comes back to Fukuoka. On the night of the Ohori Fireworks Festival, Kana decides to meet Hiroki. Does the love between Tokyo and Fukuoka have no beginning or future?

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
