Tomomi moved from Osaka to Tokyo to study at a video school, but instead she became a hostess at a cabaret club continuing her relationship with her unemployed gigolo boyfriend Akira. One day, she received a call from her mother Tatsuko, who lives in Osaka. Her divorced father Rokuzo was released from prison after six months and was heading to Tokyo. After being released, he visited Tatsuko and declared that he would start afresh in Tokyo opening a takoyaki shop. Rokuzo broke into Tomomi apartment while she was out and found her club. Tomomi couldn't hide her surprise when her father came as a customer. Rokuzo hits it off with Erika, the number one at the club, and spends the night at her apartment. The next day, Rokuzo goes to the motorboat racetrack to raise funds to open a takoyaki shop and asks Tomomi to lend him some money, but she refuses. Meanwhile, Tatsuko becomes immersed in the world of SM with Tsutomu, a customer at the bar and decides to remarry...

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
