Courtney Glaude

Birthplace:
Houston, TX

Courtney JáPaul Glaudé, writer, director, and producer grew up in Houston’s 5th Ward. After dealing with abuse and bullying as a child; he found himself escaping into his imagination, creating a different atmosphere, and uncovering his passion for filmmaking. A master of creativity and an executer of vision; Courtney cleverly uses his talents to vividly depict storytelling on the big screen. A Modern day Gideon; his passion is clear as he consistently creates quality films including well -developed characters, unpredictable storylines, and jarring visuals to match. His bold and unapologetic approach lead him to write and produce two short films: Row and Pit Stop. Both films are in the film festival circuit now with Row winning the Los Angeles Short Film Festival (LASFF), for Best Drama 2017. Clearly, Courtney has embraced the diversity of Houston by captivating the audiences of every age and culture. Today, Courtney has now finished the feature film Blinked, that will premiere in a private showing July 29,2017 and is currently working on a crime series: Rock-A-Bye. Without a doubt, we are witnessing greatness form in Houston. It is very safe to say; the inimitable Courtney JáPaul Glaudé could be one of, if not the greatest storyteller ever.

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.
