Maria Alves (Lagarto - SE, November 7, 1947 - Rio de Janeiro - RJ, May 8, 2008), whose artistic name was changed to Maria Dealves after a numerology study, was a Brazilian actress. One of the most outstanding characters of the actress was in the novel Xica da Silva, where she played the slave Rosa in the extinct TV Manchete. In TV Globo, he has worked on several soap operas by Manoel Carlos among them Summer Sun, Dance with Me, Happiness, Love Story and For Love. Another important work in his career was in the novel Return to You (1983) of Benedito Ruy Barbosa where, next to the actor Ruy Resende (Curió), interpreted the personage Patience. In the movies, he starred in 37 films such as Bruno Barreto's Romance of the Maid (1984) and Miguel Faria Jr.'s Para Viver um Grande Amor (1988) Also in the cast was the first experience of TV Globo in the miniseries format: Lampião and Maria Bonita by Aguinaldo Silva and Doc Comparato, in 1982.

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.
