Joined the People's Liberation Army in 1970 and served as an actor of the Fuzhou Military Region Repertory Theatre. In 1975, director of Beijing Film Studio Shui Hua selected Zhu Shimao as Fu Hailong in the film "Children of Xisha". From then on into the film industry. In 1983, he was officially transferred to the August 1st Film Studios. Before entering the Bayi Factory, Xie Jin chose Zhu Shimao to play the actor Xu Lingzhang when he directed "Wrangler". Under the strict requirements of the well-known director Xie Jin, Zhu Shimao paid attention to grasping emotions, struggling to dig into the character's inner world, and made an intellectual who was beaten to the right by enduring hardships and convictions, Xu Lingzhang, lively. As a result, Zhu Shimao became famous in the movie industry and became a favorite young actor. Later, he played Ke Yuhua in the film "Doctor Ke Yuhua", Yuan Han in "The Road Is Relentless and Love", Wu Zhongyi in "The Urgent Blue Whale", and Ma Chuanbei in "I Only Tear Three Times" and many more. His performances in these films are not as good as those of Wrangler, but they are still loved by the audience.  In 1990, Zhu Shimao changed his career from the Bayi Film Studio to become an actor in the China Broadcasting Art Troupe. Shortly thereafter, studying abroad. In 1993 he participated in the filming of "Mist House". Currently engaged in film and television production (production).

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.
