Aimée Iacobescu, born together with her sibling brother Dorel, on 23rd of June, but registered on 1st July, 1946, in the village of Unguriu, Buzau county, studied Acting at the Theatre and Cinema Institute "Ion Luca Caragiale" (IATC) in Bucharest, with professor Beate Fredanov, assisted by Octavian Cotescu and Laurent Azimioara, graduating in 1968. She started to play at the "National Theatre" in Bucharest already while in school, in 1963, in a play directed by Sica Alexandrescu, who had remarked her reciting poetry. After finishing her studies, she was employed by the same "National Teatre" in Bucharest, where she played for 40 years, between 1968-2008, filming also in movies, while her brother left the country and settled in Paris. She is best known for the part of Lady Ralu, a historic figure in the films with "haiduks".
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.
