The film uses both music and dance forms alongside Shakespeare's sublime poetry to explore and express key themes centered on the nature of Love itself - its anguish, its glorious manifestations, its endless paradoxes, its transcendent essence. The full spectrum of love's possibilities is encompassed from the darkest side of lust and carnality right through to its most sublime and divine expression. The sonnets are intermixed with brief scenes from Shakespeare's plays thematically intertwined. There is an eclectic mix of music and song from classical Indian genre to Mozart's sonatas, modern film music, the mystical strains of Gurdjieff's piano music, Sanskrit Vedic hymns and more. Classical Indian dancer Arunima Kumar adds a further dimension in magnifying and illuminating the full range of emotions which the sonnets and play extracts embody. O learn to read what silent love hath writ To hear with eyes belongs to love's fine wit.

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.
