A drama depicting the whereabouts of two pairs of lovers who meet at a cafe at night and intersect. Yamagata, an unsuccessful actor, lies to Yuko, who lives with him, that he is filming, and kills time at a cafe late at night. One night, he meets painter Uehara and his lover, Aya, and leaves the city to escape the boredom of everyday life. However, the two do not have enough passion to call it an escape, and after spending the night at the hotel, they return to their respective partners. However, Yamagata is stabbed by Uehara, who is furious. Yuko and Aya head to the hospital with Mushi no Soku Yamagata in the car. Eventually, Yamagata dies, and the two leave him behind. And at that moment, Yamagata came back to life...
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.
