​From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia  Branko "Đuro" Đurić (born May 28, 1962) is a Bosnian actor, director and musician from Bosnia and Herzegovina. Born to a Serb father and Bosniak mother in Sarajevo, Đurić rose to prominence throughout the former Yugoslavia with the hit comedy series Top Lista Nadrealista during the 1980s. Đuro became something of an epitome for the Bosnian people, primarily due to his accent and slang. He was also one of the founding members of SCH (band) and the frontman of Sarajevo rock band Bombaj Štampa. During the Yugoslav wars he moved to Slovenia. Notable films where he appeared have included: Time of the Gypsies (1988) (Dom za vešanje) Kuduz (1989) The Fall of Rock and Roll (1989) (Kako je propao rokenrol) An Additional Soul (1991) (Ovo malo duše) No Man's Land (2001) (Ničija zemlja) Kajmak and Marmalade (2003) (Kajmak i marmelada) A Small World (2003) (Mali svet) Bal-Can-Can (2005) Triage (2009) Currently, Ðurić is married to Slovenian actress Tanja Ribič with whom he played with in Kajmak in marmelada and lives and works in Slovenia, where he leads Theatre 55, a film production company. He also works in Croatia, where he had a TV show Pet Minuta Slave (Five Minutes of Fame) on Nova TV, as well as the comedy series Naša mala klinika (Our Little Clinic), which is currently being aired on POP TV and Nova TV. In February 2007, Ðurić has appeared on B92 television in Serbia in Ðurine žute minute short segments, a slightly different take on his widely popular "Ðurine kućne čarolije" sketch, which he performed in Top Lista Nadrealista. The segments mostly received poor reviews and were quickly taken off the air. In December 2008, he reunited with Bombaj Štampa for a concert in Sarajevo featuring original guitarist Nedim Babović and drummer Dragan Bajić along with bassist Ernie Mendillo (The Brandos). More concerts followed and an album of new material will be released in the Spring of 2010.  Description above from the Wikipedia article Branko Đurić, 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.
