A homeless orphan boy was forced to pickpocket to buy food while people around him refused to give him food without money. He got caught when he tried to pickpocket. A kind-hearted man saw the whole situation; he offered him food and a job in his garage. That's how he changed that boy's life. After getting his salary, he was going to buy something to eat when, at that moment, he saw his friend injured and crying. He asked his friend why his friend was crying. His friend gave him the same response that he gave to the garage owner a few days ago. He fed his friend and promised to try to find him work where he already works. That's how that orphan boy attempted to change another orphan boy's life.
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.
