While it was raining, Takarada Takara (Yudai Chiba), who works for a company, walked lethargically without an umbrella. Meanwhile, he was led by a hawker for the stage and watched the performance of the theater company Hero. Inspired by the play by Kamoshima Yujin (Kento Nagayama) who was appearing in the performance, Takarada decided to quit the company and go on to become an actor. Kamoshima teaches Takarada who has become a member of the theater company Hero. Among them, he is the only one who notices the talent of Takarada and hopes to make him the best actor in the world. At the same time, he himself continued to dream of becoming the best actor in the world.
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.
