Jon, a filmmaker on the verge of success, and Wing, a drug dealer, reconnect after years apart. Their reunion, initially filled with nostalgia, quickly turns tense as Wing harbours a shocking secret: he is recording their conversation. Wing seeks a confession from Jon about a traumatic event involving their friend, Amy, which occurred at their graduation party 15 years ago. As the confrontation intensifies, Jon and Wing must grapple with the painful reality of their shared past, pushing the boundaries of their friendship and morality. When Amy, now a prosecutor, joins the meeting, the three are forced to face the consequences of that fateful night, unraveling a web of power, manipulation, and deeply buried truths.
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.
