The science of Pál Varga is famous far and wide: no one can make shoes and topazes like him. The news reaches the court of King Dúlfúl, and the little princess gets it into her head to have him make her a shoe shoe. But her father sends his messenger to Paul Varga, but he is not up to the task, because a lot of poor girls' shoes are waiting to be repaired. Princess Tweety then decides to go to the boastful Varga herself. She dresses up as a maid and goes to the crow. All is well until the young master takes a measure of her. But then he finds that a servant girl who does hard work should not walk on such legs. Tweety reveals herself and finally gets Paul Varga to go to his father's court and submit to the trials.
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.
