70 year old Shen Yanhong (played by Yang Ziqiong) was sent to a nursing home by her son after falling seriously ill, and the house was also rented out by her son. In order to regain her life, she tried to make money but encountered obstacles everywhere. Just as she was about to give up, her talent in the Rubik's Cube was discovered by young Rubik's Cube coach Xiao Wu. One wants to make money and leave the nursing home, while the other wants to save the dying Rubik's Cube training class. The two hit it off and appeared on TV programs. From the beginning, she not only gained fame and fortune, attention, dignity, love, and initiative in life, but also brought vitality to the stagnant nursing home. She was not afraid of failure, fought against aging and prejudice, and arrived at the highest stage of the Rubik's Cube all the way. Finally, with her son's encouragement, she completed an extremely difficult challenge and won the Guinness World Record.
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.
