Fırat, nicknamed Kafkas, is a promising young boxer who has never lost a fight. When he steps into the ring for the gold belt match, he has no idea that his life is about to end. He defeats the world champion boxer, but his opponent cannot withstand Kafkas' punches and dies. Fırat's life changes dramatically as a result of this unfortunate event. Even though Fırat wins the gold belt that night, he loses his life, his career, and his pregnant wife. Seven years later, Fırat is forced to return to the ring to fight for Güneş, who has a terminal illness inherited from his mother. Now, Fırat has only one thing on his mind: to keep his son alive. Caucasus will return to the ring for Güneş and say, "One more round."
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.
