Seventy years ago, there was a person who stole tears while looking at the Korean War orphan dying in hunger and cold with the heart of his father. It was Everett Swanson (1913-1965). Compassion, which he started out of compassion for Korean War orphans, has provided miracles to more than 100,000 Korean children, including Kathy, a Korean orphan. Also, his father's heart that he harbored flowed toward children all over the world. Messod, a Rwandan boy, lost his father in 1994 Hwang Tae-hwan, a South Korean father who lost his son in 2023 A relay of love that changes the world with one person's power and has a good influence, it is a story of hope and emotion in which the giver and the receiver grow together.
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.
