A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Rhys is an actor, improviser, musician and writer who was most recently seen in Colin and Cameron Cairnes' feature film Late Night with the Devil which premiered at SxSW, then Sydney Film Festival and Melbourne International Film Festival. Rhys' nuanced and quirky performance in the film garnered many positive reviews. He performs regularly as part of the Impro Melbourne ensemble, The Big Hoo-Haa and Murder Village, and has written for and performed at festivals across Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane and New Zealand. Rhys is also a songwriter, performing solo and in the duo Baby Drivers. Rhys completed a Bachelor of Performing Arts (Hons) at Monash University and a Certificate of Professional Screenwriting at RMIT where he was awarded the 2014 FilmVic Award.
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.
