A theatre group in the German provinces. Some live here, others travel for the rehearsal weekends, returning home for a few days. They all share a love of making theatre and a desire to address relevant social issues on stage. Marianne, who also directs the plays, writes them and they rehearse on her cold barn floor. They are about the conflicts in our society - the new work is about food: the consumption of meat, consumerism, vegetarianism and bulimia. After rehearsals, the participants sit together over coffee and cake in cigarette smoke, planning, gossiping and exchanging ideas about what is happening in their lives. In this motley community, everyone has their own burdens, worries, hopes and problems. But everything is put on the table with an openness that quickly makes it clear that this is not just about playing theatre.
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.
