The movie follows Ewan. He is living with his Aunt and her family in Livermore for the summer before he goes to college. He is a hard-working and ambitious, wanting to go to college to study journalism. The story begins with Ewan interviewing members of the community. It's difficult because he is trying to get used to a new and uncomfortable hearing aid that he is obligated to wear. He attends a house party where he is introduced to many people, including a beautiful young lady that fascinates him. He struggles and is overwhelmed by the loud environment, but stands out as a local hero when the host is injured in a kitchen accident. Ewan begins a project to achieve his goals by interviewing members of the Livermore community. He talks to a variety of people, learning about the various struggles and passions of older generations and the points of view of the younger. But he faces troubles that he didn't expect and that put his ambitions to the test.

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.
