An old man reads the diary of a young Jewish woman living at the time of the Nazi Occupation, sixty years ago. Sarah Rosemblum, 25, was young, beautiful and in love… with a German officer named Hans. Under a false name, Sarah lives under the protection of Huguette, a cabaret singer who makes a habit of hiding Jews and helping them to escape to England. In Huguette’s remote house, Sarah and Hans are able to pursue their romantic idyll, unaware that they are being spied on by Robert, a 16-year-old who is secretly in love with Sarah, and Huguette’s mother, who is still mourning her son’s death. With the world closing in on them, Sarah and Hans know that they must take flight, whilst they still have time…

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.
