Ana Valeria, a young Mexican actress, began her acting career at the age of 15, dabbling in theater with the Macramé Collective. At the end of 2016 she filmed her first movie, "Las Hijas de Abril" by the multi-award winning director, Michel Franco, where she shared the screen with Emma Suérez (Julieta, 2016). Her participation took her to the Cannes Film Festival, where the film was awarded the Jury Prize in the Un Certain Regard section. For her performance she was recognized with the Female Promise Award at the CANACINE Awards and Best Female Revelation at the 60th Ariel Award Ceremony 2018. We can also see her in the feature film "Muerte al verano" and soon in "Los días que no estuve" and "Mi novia es la revolución"; as well as the series "Control Z" produced by Netflix.
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.
