This documentary explores Dolph Lundgren’s journey from his childhood in Sweden to becoming an internationally renowned action star in Hollywood. The film reflects on Lundgren’s personal pursuit of the American Dream, driven by his father’s advice that to achieve something special, he had to go to America. The documentary touches on his transformation from an insecure Swedish kid into one of the most iconic action heroes of his generation, alongside legends like Sylvester Stallone and Arnold Schwarzenegger. It also delves into the key factors behind his success, including his hard work, perseverance, and the elusive "it" factor that helped him thrive in a highly competitive industry. Throughout, Lundgren reflects on mortality and how it has shaped his desire to live life to the fullest.

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.
