Eastbound is the inspiring story of one woman’s record-breaking cycle around the World. Over the course of 18,000 miles, ridden alone and with no support crew in 2018, Jenny Graham smashed the previous Guinness World Record by nearly three weeks finishing in 124days 11hours. This film follows Jenny as she tackles the gruelling daily routine of 14 hours in the saddle with the harsh realities of the journey. From the sheer terror of near collisions on Russian roads, to experiencing a myriad of different cultures, and finding friendships with strangers. We see the misery of mid-winter in the Southern Hemisphere, and watch as Jenny tackles alarming encounters with kangaroos and grizzly bears. By the time she returns to the finish line at the Brandenburg Gates it’s no surprise that Jenny is a changed person thanks to one humble bike, the entire world, and an unforgettable adventure.

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.
