Runtime: 69
Recorded in July 2006 at the wonderful Leiden Theatre (Leische Shouwburg Theater) in Holland, where Cristina had her international premiere, this concert's program joins the more recent repertoire at that time with some classical fados. On this concert Cristina plays with the different forms of relationship between modernity and tradition: modernity settled by her unique style seen in all her albums, and tradition, because when she sings an older fado she does it in the most respectful way, but always with her own personality token. "Live" is a very consistent concert, with polished images where we'll have the pleasure to discover Cristina Branco in some repertoire until then not approached by her.
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.
