Jack Greenhalgh (July 23, 1904 – September 3, 1971) was an American cinematographer, part of the Classical Hollywood cinema generation. He shot Billy the Kid in Santa Fe (1941), Gangster's Den (1945), Too Many Winners (1947) among others. He was active from 1926-53. An operator assistant in the late 1920s, Jack Greenhalgh was the lead operator on two hundred and four American B-series films, released between 1935 and 1953. Many of them are Sam Newfield's productions produced by the Producers Releasing Corporation , including westerns (notably with Buster Crabbe or Tim McCoy) and horror films. Let us mention Reefer Madness by Louis J. Gasnier (1936, with Dave O'Brien and Thelma White), Douglas Sirk's Hitler's Madman (1943, with Patricia Morison and John Carradine), Sam Newfield's Forbidden Pleasures (1949), with Alan Baxter and Lyle Talbot), or Phil Tucker's Robot Monster (his penultimate film, 1953, starring George Nader and Selena Royle). For television, Jack Greenhalgh contributed to two series in 1951 and 1952, including The Adventures of Kit Carson (1951). From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

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.
