Henny Lindorff Buckhøj var datter af skuespiller Axel Larsen (død 1940) og hustru Else Christiansen (død 1941). Hun læste hos kgl. skuespillerinde Soffy Walléen i 2 år og debuterede som skuespiller i september 1920 hos Jacob Jacobsen på Horsens Teater i forestillingen "Skal - skal ikke" og kom siden til Aalborg Teater, hvor hun havde rollen som husassistenten i "Den ny husassistent". Hun var 1922-23 en meget benyttet kraft hos Thorvald Larsen, hos Gerda Christophersen 1923-24 og Thorvald Larsen igen 1924-27 og blev af ham engageret til Odense Teater 1927-29. I årene 1929-31 spillede hun på Betty Nansen Teatret og var derefter 10 år på Aarhus Teater fra 1931 til 1941, hvor hun havde mange hovedroller bl.a. som Sara Levin i "Indenfor murene". Det vakte opmærksomhed i pressen, da ægteparret Per Buckhøj og Henny Lindorff i februar 1941 modtog en opsigelse fra Aarhus Teater. Derefter kom hun igen til Odense Teater 1942-43 og vendte i 1943 tilbage til hovedstaden, hvor hun fik sit come-back i "Stjernevognen". Hun spillede på forskellige københavnske scener, bl.a. 1943 og 1945-46 på Frederiksberg Teater og på Allé-Scenen. Fra 1948 var hun free lance ved teater, film og radio. Hun havde mange store roller i Radioteatret. På film medvirkede hun bl.a. i "Ditte menneskebarn". Henny Lindorff Buckhøj blev i sit andet ægteskab gift den 1. maj 1933 med skuespilleren Per Buckhøj og er mor til skuespilleren Jørgen Buckhøj. Hun er søster til skuespillerinden Bodil Lindorff.

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.
