January 7, 1961
Hong Hui Fang started acting after completing her drama training course. Over the years, she has made viewers sit up and take note of her impeccable acting skills. This dedicated artiste constantly seeks out new ways to improve herself. Hui Fang’s defining role in her career was that of a conniving and gullible samsui woman in 1986’s Samsui Women. It was that breakthrough that pushed Hui Fang to the pinnacle of her career. Hui Fang further outshone the field in Star Awards ‘97 where she picked up the Best Supporting Actress award for her role in Price Of Peace. Her convincing portrayal of a housewife being gang raped by Japanese soldiers spurred an onslaught of sympathies from viewers. Since then, she has clinched one challenging role after another. In 1999, Hui Fang was invited by Singapore's most popular filmmaker and actor Jack Neo to perform in his movie - That One Not Enough. Hui Fang was seen in the dramas such as Reach For The Skies, Babies On Board, While You Were Away and Hello From The Other Side.
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.
