Biography from TheMovieDB

Fahim Mohammad (born 26 July 2000) is a French-Bangladeshi chess player. He is a FIDE master since 2017. His highest rating was 2383 (in June 2018).  He was born in Dhaka, Bangladesh in 2000 and moved to France in 2008 with his father. The family sought political asylum, which was initially rejected by the French authorities. Meanwhile, Fahim had started playing chess at the chess club in Creteil. In 2012, he became national chess champion in the under-12 category. He continued to excel in chess, and by 2016, his Elo rating had risen to 2276, placing him among the top 150 players in the world in the under-16 category.  Fahim's life story was told in a 2014 book by Sophie Le Callennec and Xavier Parmentier. The book has been translated in multiple languages, including in English under the title A King in Hiding. The book has also been turned into a film called Fahim. Directed by Pierre-François Martin-Laval and starring Gerard Depardieu, the movie is set for release in 2019.  Source: Article "Fahim Mohammad" from Wikipedia in English, licensed under CC-BY-SA 3.0

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.
