A couple finds that breaking into the Hollywood elite is harder than they ever imagined in this improvised, independent comedy of manners.

Catherine and Jason are nervously preparing for their first L.A. dinner party. They have moved from New York and are celebrating the sale of their first film, a hit at Sundance. They feel like fish out of water and are intent on making new friends. Keith, a new acquaintance of Catherine's, arrives first, flirting with Catherine and annoying Jason. Soon after, Charlie, a producer who has optioned Jason's new script, arrives with his assistant, Kim. Blake, an indie film guru, gets the last seat and the six of them settle into a weird, tense dining session filled with the hyperbolic movie-talk that only exists in L.A. When a surprise guest knocks on the door, the party takes an unexpected turn. Featuring a veteran cast of television actors including Nancy Bell (Star Trek Voyager), Kevin Chamberlin (Christmas with the Kranks) and Kit Pongetti (The Gilmore Girls). In the tradition of Curb Your Enthusiasm.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
