Biography from TheMovieDB

Elisabeth Ness is an award-winning actor, writer, producer, editor, and creative entrepreneur. Striving to make a positive impact on the world through entertainment onstage, onscreen, and in voice-over, the Yale alumna created the hit comedy series Redheads Anonymous -- www.redheadsanonymous.com -- and co-founded Good Porpoise Productions, LLC, which specializes in making socially-conscious fictional narratives, and mini-documentaries for non-profits.  Her work has been called "especially funny" (NY Times), "razor-sharp" (Washington Post), and "hilarious" (Times Herald-Record and the Catskill Chronicle); awards include 'Best Actress in a Sitcom' and 'Best Sitcom Screenplay' (Rome Web Awards), and nominations for the 'Raindance Discovery Award' (London), 'Best Lead Actor (Female) Award (Blackbird Film Fest), and 'Best Actress Award' (Miami Web Fest).  Elisabeth has been seen as Sara on CBS's show Bull; onscreen at Tribeca, Cannes Select, SoHo International Film Festival, and in national commercials; and been heard as a voice for Rockstar Games, the YMCA, and Bud Light, among others. She has appeared onstage at venues such as Williamstown Theatre Festival, Lincoln Center, Ars Nova, Atlantic Theater, Inwood Shakespeare, and Signature Theatre. Her singing can be found on numerous albums, including the award-nominated Broadway Records Original Studio Cast Album of the musical Like You Like It. She will be featured in two upcoming Netflix projects, as well as the film June starring Aaron Kwok.  Behind the scenes, Elisabeth produced the award-nominated short En Route; associate-produced NYCIFF 'Best TV Pilot' Award-winner The Grid; co-wrote and produced the short films Julie & Riley and Best Friends Forever; and produced, directed, and wrote song parodies for a cabaret at the Williamstown Theatre Festival, among other projects.  When not performing, producing, or causing redheaded mischief, Elisabeth runs a monthly 'salon' for women entrepreneurs in the entertainment industry, edits sizzle reels and films, plays piano, and conducts a ninety-person choir.  - IMDb Mini Biography By: Anonymous

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.
