A film adaptation of Toshio Kamata's "Rape." A suspense thriller depicting the paranoid delusional psychology of fans. Masayuki Danmasa originally wanted to be a writer of children's stories, but the violence novel he wrote to fill in the blanks became a big hit and became a popular author. The content of his works is so extreme that even his wife Yasuko's reality is so different from Masayuki's actual image. One day, while Masayuki is away, Yasuko receives a call from a woman who calls herself Tomoko Abe. She says that the woman was raped by Masayuki, so Yasuko decides to meet Tomoko. Yasuko is relieved by her story, which has no basis or evidence, but Tomoko's harassment of her escalates, and she finally puts her self-made scenario into action. Masayuki, who doesn't know anything, falls into her temptation and ends up writing the experience into a novel as planned...
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.
