Moscow of the 1950s, June. Urban residents, having loaded all their scrub from mattresses to pots into suburban trains, leave for dachas and villages. Among them is the family of the boy Denis Korablev. Denis's parents don't really want to continue the tradition of renting a house for three summer months in the village, but Denis's grandmother is convinced that fresh country air is extremely useful to all of them. Life in the village is in full swing. Denis's dad rides a bike, Denis's mom walks around the village in a white sundress, Denis's grandmother makes jam from strawberries, which have been born a lot this year. Denis has fun in the village — he joins a local gang of boys, befriends a girl Lena, goes to the boat station and plays a lot of mischief. One day the most terrible thing happens to Denis for every boy — he falls in love.
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.
