30 anni di Cinema a Ponticelli
Ratings / Certifications:
N/A
The story of Arci Movie is also a bit that of the last 30 years of Ponticelli, a district of 50,000 inhabitants on the eastern outskirts of Naples. A story made up of testimonies, memories, images, love for culture and for a territory which, with the promotion of cinema as a sign of sharing, has been able to change its perspective. Many well-known faces took part in the 90s in the battle to save the Pierrot cinema, a historic hall destined to become a supermarket like many others. Many activists, educators and citizens protagonists of a history of cinema that has left marks in the community like few other experiences in the recent history of Naples.

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.
