Rina Ichinose starts a busy work life at an advertising agency right after graduation. But the job doesn't go well and she has to work overtime every day. The nagging from her father after she goes back home drains her physically and mentally. So she resigns from the agency. Rina meets a charismatic therapist Karen at a job fair. Attracted by her vigor, Rina decides to become a therapist. But things do not go well at the beginning and she even infuriates a male customer, the former professional baseball player Usui. Usui was a preeminent professional baseball player but his contract was terminated by the club due to the sequela caused by a dead ball hit. Rina tries every means to help him come back to the field as a baseball player.

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.
