​From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.  Darlanne Fluegel (November 25, 1953 - December 15, 2017) was an American actress, fashion model, film producer and professor.  Fluegel appeared in the TV series Crime Story and the final season of Hunter. She was featured in Sergio Leone's 1984 film Once Upon a Time in America as Robert De Niro's girlfriend Eve (credited as "Darlanne Fleugel"), and in 1986's Tough Guys as Kirk Douglas' girlfriend. In 1985 she appeared in To Live And Die In L.A. as Ruth Lanier, the love interest (and snitch) of William Petersen's main character Secret Service Agent Richard Chance. Not long afterward, in early 1986, she portrayed Billy Crystal's ex-wife, Anna, in the hit buddy-cop action comedy Running Scared.  Fluegel also appeared in numerous other performances and appearances on network television (such as The Tonight Show), major advertising campaigns and music videos, as well as “cover girl” and other national and international professional modeling (represented for 15 years by The Ford Agency, New York).  Fluegel taught acting as a professor at the University of Central Florida from 2002 to 2007.  Description above from the Wikipedia article Darlanne Fluegel, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia

The Search Form


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.
