A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Olemich Tugas is an American actor. He studied at The Theatre School at DePaul, where he received a BFA in Acting. Since graduating, he has had the privilege of working on various projects from performing Shakespeare in the Park to feature films. He made his feature film debut in a character role in Adult Children, written by Annika Marks, and directed by Rich Newey. Olemich attended the world premiere of Adult Children at Bentonville Film Festival '25, where he and the cast won the Special Jury Award for Best Ensemble. Olemich has also recently premiered a short film, Debaters, written and directed by Alex Heller at Sundance Film Festival 2025, where it was nominated for Best Short Film and later picked up to be part of Sundance's Vimeo short film tour. He is also set to be in a supporting role in the feature film Loafers, written and directed by Zach Schnitzer. Portraying goofballs, villains, and misfits, he has a relentless curiosity of human nature and a passion for performing that drives him at the center of all his work onscreen and onstage. Olemich is a proud member of SAG-AFTRA. - IMDb mini biography by: Olemich Tugas
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.
