A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Birthplace:
Cuenca, Ecuador
Carlos Gallegos, an Ecuadorian dramatist, stage director, and actor, has emerged as a highly regarded figure in the theater industry. Born in Cuenca, Ecuador, Gallegos discovered his passion for the performing arts at a young age. He embarked on his journey in the world of theater, gradually honing his skills and making a name for himself in Ecuador’s vibrant theater scene. He was formed in United State (Dell'Arte International School), French (École Internationale Jacques Lecoq y École de Clown Le Samovar) and Ecuador (Laboratorio Malayerba y Teatro del Cronopio). While Gallegos has ventured into film, it is his contributions to the theater that have garnered him the most recognition. In 2010, he starred in the film “Prometeo deportado” (Deporting Prometeo), showcasing his talent on the silver screen. However, it is through his work in theater that Gallegos has truly left an indelible mark.
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.
