The pair are staying at a summer resort at the beach. They both "spot" the arrival of the "peach." Eddie attempts to flirt with her, and she is coy but willing. Lee, too, cannot make his eyes behave, and a breach is beginning to appear in their friendship. Eddie finds that the girl is in her room and 'phones up to her, inviting her to take a stroll on the beach. She asks him if he is the one with "the winning smile" and he tells her he sure is. She agrees to meet him outside. Lee, meanwhile, has bribed the bellboy to spy on the girl, discovers the arrangement and beats Eddie to the girl. When Eddie comes in looking for the girl he sees her and Lee strolling on the beach. He hires a boy to feign drowning and when Lee bravely tries to rescue him, the kid jeeringly swims off. While Lee is playing the brave rescuer, Eddie gets the girl and takes her off for a stroll.
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.
