What is the Christmas stamp collection money used for? Vulnerable and especially needy children get the opportunity to come to the Christmas brand homes around Denmark. Not all children have it just as easy at home, the funds can be small and they can be very much left to themselves. Child life in the backyards is a condition for many. Many children need good care and fresh air after illness. The lucky ones will stay at a Christmas brand home. However, it can be difficult to say goodbye at Central Station. We follow the daily life at Lindersvold in Faxe, which has 80 children all year round, Fjordmark by Flensburg Fjord, Holbølls Minde by Svendborg, which has 60 smaller children, the Hobro home by Mariager Fjord, which is the newest and most modern, and the Christmas brand home in Juelsminde . The royal couple visit Hobro Christmas brand home.
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.
