In the Daoxiu Town located in Osaka, there lived such an independent woman. Her name is Harukin Akiya (played by Naoya Nagazawa). At the age of 9, she went blind due to illness and then began learning silk and bamboo. The skill of Chunqin is superb. Although it is taught in a school, it scared away many disciples due to its stubborn and stubborn temper. The only person who never gives up on Chunqin is her servant Sasuke (played by Saito Gong), who has been guiding her since childhood. Sasuke regards the sacred Harukin as if it were Guanyin. Occasionally, he follows Harukin to learn the Sanwei line and takes care of everything for his master with all his heart. At that time, the playboy Ritaro (played by Matsuda Goji) pursued Harukin but was rejected and humiliated. Chunqin's unconventional behavior has led to a tragedy in his life and tightly intertwined the fate of him and Sasuke
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.
