Roberto Pupo Moreno, born on February 11, 1959, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, is a former Brazilian racing driver known for his resilience and adaptability across various motorsport disciplines, including Formula 1, IndyCar, and sports car racing. Moreno’s career began in karting and progressed through the junior ranks in Europe, where he won the 1988 International Formula 3000 Championship. He made his Formula 1 debut in 1982 and, over the years, drove for multiple teams, often as a “super sub” who filled in at short notice. His best F1 result came with Benetton in 1990, where he finished second at the Japanese Grand Prix. Despite facing frequent challenges in securing a stable F1 seat, Moreno was admired for his technical feedback and professionalism. After Formula 1, he competed successfully in IndyCar, achieving podium finishes and becoming a respected figure in American open-wheel racing. Known as the “super sub” of motorsports, Moreno’s versatility and determination earned him a unique legacy in racing circles as one of the most dedicated drivers of his era.
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.
