Biography from TheMovieDB

A familiar face to TV audience, Rui En first emerged to stardom as the iconic "running girl" in a telecom commercial. From then, she soared to fame with her independent yet edgy façade, which strongly exudes the confidence and poise of women of the new age.  A versatile and hardworking artiste who is fiercely passionate about her craft, she has acted in more than thirty-five TV series and portrayed uncountable memorable roles over the years of her career. In 2010, her outstanding and captivating performance in drama series "Happy Family", "With You" and "Unriddle (2010)" marked a turning point in her career, establishing her as one of the top actresses in Singapore ever since.  Hailed by media as the "Queen of ratings", her achievements reflect her dedication in bringing every character she plays to life and the strong audience connection she has developed. Over the years, many of the dramas that she headlined has attained record-breaking viewership ratings.  With two Star Awards' "Best Actress" and an Asian Television Awards "Best Actress" award to her name, Rui En's outstanding performance is affirmed at a regional level.  Her scorching popularity is undeniable. She was the Singapore E-Awards' Most Popular TV Artiste for three years in a row and has attained Star Awards "All Time Favourite Artiste" in 2016 after winning the "Top 10 Most Popular Female Artiste" for ten consecutive years. Her exceptional performance has also gained strong followings in other regions like Indonesia, Malaysia and Cambodia.  On a personal level, Rui En's advocacies on volunteering and charitable involvements have also made a notable impact. Besides fronting Community Chest's theme song "Listen to You Heart" since 2003 and personally volunteering for social causes, her efforts have also encouraged her young fans to initiate charity campaigns for the needy such as door-to-door visits and food giving over the past few years.  With consistent outstanding performances and strong audience support, Rui En continues to dazzle as one of the most in-demand artistes in the industry.

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.
