Lola Blue is a talented comedian on the rise to success, regularly performing in Naples' trendiest clubs, with a next big break: to be the star of "Crepapelle," a TV show destined to be the pinnacle of her career. However, her impetuous and rage-prone temperament causes her problems, triggering public episodes of wrath that draw criticism and a court order forcing her to participate in a five-week group therapy program. She arrives at Sacred Circle, a retreat in the midst of nature in Umbria. Initially, Lola feels completely out of place and attempts to sabotage the experience; however, just as she begins to find serenity, a call from her manager prompts her to return to the stage. After an intimate night with Ravi, the retreat leader, Lola returns to Naples. Despite her renewed success, she decides to give up her race for fame to seek a deeper existential balance.

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.
