Ayu Azhari, is an Indonesian actress, singer, model, and politician. She made her feature film début in 1984 in "Akibat Buah Terlarang". Director Teguh Karya, who saw her in the film, adopted her as a protégée. Her first role for him was as a minor character in the stage drama "Pernikahan Darah", in which the director badgered her for not carrying her voice. In 1986 she played in Karya's film "Ibunda". She took a small role in Karya's last feature film, "Pacar Ketinggalan Kereta" in 1989. In 1990, Azhari received a Citra Award for Best Supporting Actress at the Indonesian Film Festival for her role in "Dua Kekasih". By the early 2000s, Azhari was one of the highest paid television stars in Indonesia. In 2003, Azhari wrote a book on the dangers of voyeurism.
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.
