Olive farmer Pascual del Vecchio ends up in a coma due to the shock of seeing his wife Graciela’s infidelity. But when he awakes, he thinks he is a Sicilian mafia boss, and starts tasking his youngest son, Miguel, with carrying out his “criminal” orders. With Graciela out of town on a semi-permanent vacation, the situation comes to a head for Miguel: after a year of pretending to be a Sicilian mobster, his girlfriend Gina, whom he hasn't told about his father’s mental state, will visit the family farm for the first time. But Gina won’t be the only one arriving, as Miguel’s older brother Felipe, who’s also in the dark about Pascual’s new persona, unexpectedly returns with a business deal to run by his father. Miguel must find a way to save his family’s past life or get them to accept the new one.

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.
