In March 2018, oncologist Andrey Pavlenko learned that he had stomach cancer. Over the years of consultations, Andrey identified three main feelings of patients: confusion, fear, and apathy. And he believes that the doctors themselves are to blame for the fact that patients are afraid and do not understand what is happening. Together with the project" Such things", Andrey begins an experiment. From that moment on, the illness, the changes in his life, the memories, the everyday thoughts become public. Viewers and listeners will learn about the obstacles faced by a person who knows everything about cancer himself. It is not customary to speak publicly about such problems of oncology as training specialists or paternalistic relations between doctors and patients, but Andrey is ready for this, because he believes that the main weapon in the fight against cancer is information.
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.
