Unlucky-in-love martial artist Juniper has hit rock bottom. She's working at her ex girlfriend's MMA studio by day and crashing on her couch by night. Needing something to call her own, Juniper steps into a local thrift store and buys a painting. What was a spur-of-the-moment purchase turns into a life-changing adventure when two masked thieves try to steal the painting. She surprises herself and the would-be thieves when she fights back and escapes. When forced to fight the ultimate battle for the painting, she realizes the true value lies not in the beauty of the painting or the allure of a new lover but in the strength of her own self-worth.
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.
