A bearded man decides to take the serious step of removing his beard. But the manly wonder, carefully cultivated over the years, turns out to be so wildly thick that ordinary barber's tools cannot shorten it, let alone remove it altogether.The bewildered man calls the Emergency Brigade, and the three dashing lads do their best to fulfil the bearded man's dream of becoming beardless by any means imaginable. In the end, the desired effect is achieved - the man's face shines like a crescent moon... The only "but" is that his new look doesn't suit him at all. To save the day, the guys of the Emergency Brigade find a clever solution...

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.
