Biography from TheMovieDB

David Lemberg has been cast in film and TV roles for his authoritative, menacing screen presence and imposing physique, that contrasting protagonists love to play against. David's notable 'baddies' include Dmitri (The Seasoning House) which opened Frightfest at the Empire, Leicester Square in 2012 - Kaleidoscope distribution, Linus Hemlock (Blood & Bone China) a feature film in the process of distribution, (the international web TV series is acclaimed for over 400,000 episodic views), Serbian gangster (The Crew), and Tupolski in Martin McDonagh's RNCM stage production of the Pillowman.  A student of David Johnson who is arguably Britain's most successful independent acting tutor considers David a versatile passionate and dedicated professional. David Lemberg is a master of Eastern European, Irish and American accents as well as native regional English accents and is known for his thoroughly researched and well executed emotional character work. David Lemberg was born in Manchester, England, the son of a former Soviet Soldier who escaped the tyrannies of Stalinism during World War II. David achieved a BA Honours degree in Fine Art at Chelsea School of Art well known for its output of acclaimed actors and directors and his career path eventually changed from painting to drama.  After returning home as a penniless artist from Kiev to England he had an opportunistic meeting with Robert Carlyle in a Manchester bar; David managed to convince the barman that he and Robert needed a few after hour drinks to further their discussions. The bar man refused at first but didn't seem to argue after some careful persuasion, whatever it was his acting career definitely sparked off that evening and he's never looked backed since.  - IMDb Mini Biography

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.

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.
