November 1, 1957

Uthumporn Silaphan, nicknamed Jum, is a Thai actress. She first began working by appearing in the television drama Keaw Noppakao in 1976. After playing the heroine for many years she later transitioned to play the villain and some of the starring roles. Currently still continuing to receive theatrical work, she mainly plays the role of a mother.  Uthumporn was married to Thierry Mekwattana, a singer of the Carabao band. They have been together for more than 17 years, and brought up two children together: Jane Mekhala (daughter) and the singer and actor Meg Mekwattana (son). The couple eventually got divorced and Uthumporn later remarried l in 2010 to Ae Siriorn Aramwit, an outgoing tomboy businesswoman and publisher who is 12 years younger.  Uthumporn said opened up about her marriage in 2012, by stating, 'I've been married for almost two years. I got married in New Zealand because the law of Thailand don't allow same genders to get married. It was all done within three days. The documents got signed successfully and all the legal ceremonies were completed. It's like in a western movie.'

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.
