Kathryn Aboya

Birthplace:
Toronto, Canada

Born and raised in Toronto, Kathryn began her exciting career in the entertainment industry at a young age with her love of storytelling that later became enriched by her previous vocation in the oil industry which took her around the world. Afterwards, Kathryn continued her journey through her extensive "film and television" studies in London, England which later branched out to Melbourne, Australia. She is known for being a dynamic, high energy and devoted actress who immerses herself entirely into any variety of roles she plays; assisted by her Indian/Italian/Germanic heritage.  More over, her on-screen presence has been described by Producers as nothing short of electric. Recently, she shared screen-time with Matt Damon in 'Downsizing' and has been recognized internationally for her role as Samira in 'Petrol'. She produced and starred as the lead in the theatre production 'Vigils' by renowned playwright Noah Haidle, which opened to industry acclaim at its Canadian Premiere this year.  Her drive and desire to not only take her industry by storm through acting, producing and directing but to continue to fuel her spiritual and nurturing side of helping others is what truly sets her apart from others in her field.  Kathryn's future pursuits include utilizing the global network that she has established to create a more egalitarian and nurturing world through the magic of honest and purposeful storytelling.  - TMDB Biography By: Alexandra Wilson

The Search Form


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.
