When Olivia, an aspiring fashion designer from a small hillside town in Italy, comes to London for a Master in a prestigious Fashion Institute, her aim is to develop the skills she has picked up from her third generation tailor father. What she isn’t expecting to experience is a terrorist attack which literally throws her across the street and into the arms of…. her lecturer, Nina. Will this coup-defoudre moment tempt Nina into disregarding her number one rule when it comes to students, or has she found true love in Olivia? Olivia’s time in London becomes a life changing experience in so many more ways than she could ever have imagined. An Anglo-Italian love story set against the backdrop of contemporary London, Brexit, sexuality, identity, diversity and fashion.
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.
