Ralph Lucas

Alias:
Ralph Lucas (I)

Ralph Lucas is a very funny guy. He proudly announces on his resumé that he can do anything. Mostly comedic in nature, Ralph is well known as Detective Anton Varescu in the popular interactive dinner theater show, "Dial M Murder Mysteries."  He is very proud of his Cyd Charisse and Fred Astaire impressions from "The Bandwagon." "I play both parts," he explains. He confesses that his Cyd Charisse kicks have gotten a little less flashy but that his Fred Astaire is still, "right on."  Ralph has written two screenplays that were made into films, "The Planet of the Dinosaurs" and the thriller, "The Child." Most recently, he has written the libretto for the musical version of "Little Women" which is slated to open on Broadway next year.  One of Ralph’s goals is, "to bring some class to gay theatre and films." His solution is to write an intellectual gay porno film - Emile Zola Goes Leather.  In the meantime while Ralph is looking for just the right star for his newest film, in joining the writing staff of THE RAINBOW REVUE, he has already begun to class up this theatre company. "Thanks Ralph, somebody had to do it."  THE RAINBOW REVUE

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.
