Meredith Berg

Alias:
Meredith Ann Berg

Award-winning writer/director Meredith Berg graduated from NYU Tisch and resides in Los Angeles where she has built a resume of producing, writing, directing and comic-book editing. While in New York, she adapted and directed the Off-Broadway update of Julius Caesar for the York Shakespeare Company, and remains active in Los Angeles theater, most recently directing the world premiere of “Lights Off, Eyes Closed”.  An avid genre fan, Meredith has both created and edited comic books, most recognizably story-editing the graphic novel for “COWBOYS & ALIENS,” upon which the feature film starring Daniel Craig and Harrison Ford was based. As a writer and director, Meredith won festival awards for her AFI Directing Workshop for Women horror short, “VOID,” which premiered at Screamfest LA and is available on Amazon. Her feature screenplay, “FACELESS,” was a finalist for the Sundance Screenwriters Lab, and was featured on the Blood List; a list of the best thriller and horror feature screenplays of the year. Meredith wrote and directed the hit digital series "LANA STEELE:MAKEUP SPY" for Estee Lauder Cosmetics, starring YouTube sensation Lilly Singh. The wildly popular series currently has over 7 million views. "DEMENTIA," her first feature script to hit theaters, was produced by BoulderLight Pictures and released by IFC. Earning rave reviews in several publications, including the Village Voice and the LA Times, "DEMENTIA" was selected as the New York Times' Critic's Pick of the week and is available in theaters as well as on iTunes, Amazon and Netflix.

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.
