From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.    Ann Kathryn Turkel (born July 16, 1946 in New York, New York, United States) is an American actress and model.  Turkel studied at the Musical Theatre Academy.  She was photographed for American Vogue. Patrick Lichfield captured images of her on location in England, the Bahamas and Sardinia during the early seventies and included them in his 1981 book The Most Beautiful Women.  She has starred in television film, her first major roles occurring in the 1974 film 99 and 44/100% Dead and 1976's The Cassandra Crossing, both alongside her future husband Richard Harris; they were divorced in 1982. Despite their divorce she and Harris remained good friends and when Harris died in 2002 Turkel was so saddened and called him a mentor and good friend.  She portrayed comic strip heroine Modesty Blaise in a 1982 TV pilot.  Description above from the Wikipedia article Ann Kathryn Turkel, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.

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.
