In 2009, the stallion Speed Star is brought to Yakutsk from Moscow to take part in the races. At this time, childhood friends Egor and Kolya are working in a small stable. Egor has just dropped out of school, lives right in the stable and finds solace in communicating with horses. His parents and brothers do not understand him, believing that he is doing a worthless job. Ambitious and ambitious Kolya believes that in racing everything depends on the speed and agility of the horse, not considering it necessary to find a common language with them. Egor, on the contrary, always communicates with horses and sees the beauty of nature in them.
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.
