In the south Yunnan region of China, how many unknown secrets are hidden in the middle of the deep mountains and dense forests. Pu Po, an old Yi traditional Chinese medicine practitioner and vice president of the county hospital, and Fang Wen, his unmarried son-in-law, who is a doctor, are walking among the mangrove mountains, searching for the secret recipe for treating bruises and gunshot wounds passed down by the old family of the caretaker of the forest. However, an accident occurs on the way, and Pu Po accidentally falls down the valley, and later a corpse containing Pu Po's ID card is found with a completely disfigured face. This incident makes the old man's daughter, Chunyan, very sad. In a silent night, the daughter sat alone at home, looking at her father's last picture. At that moment, there were footsteps in the yard, and the person who came was Pu Pu, who was supposed to be dead.
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.
