Sixten Lundberg, born March 18, 1961, in Helsinki, is a Finnish actor. Lundberg studied at the Theater Academy 1979-83. Over time, he has developed into a skilled comedian who draws audiences and laughs where he shows up. In 2003-05, he broke a personal record as Grottmannen on the Swedish Theatre's mini-stage, with an outspoken gender role parody that attracted over 7,000 spectators. In parallel, he also played assertive neighbor (2004-05) in Middagsgästen - Illallisvieras at Lilla teatern. Already as a student, he participated in plays at the Swedish Theater, and later, among other things, in Gunilla Hemming's "En tyst bolagsman" and in the popular adaptation of "Emil i Lönneberga" directed by Sven Sid 1985-86. He has for long periods worked as a freelancer, created his own entertainment programs and done various theatre roles; for example Herra Huu at the Helsinki City Theater in 2002.
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.
