Tippeke

Runtime: 18
Tippeke began as an impulse by Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and Thierry De Mey in 1996 to experiment with some leftover 16mm film. A nursery rhyme that De Keersmaeker used to recite to her son almost daily during the period formed the starting point, together with a movement sequence that she had recently worked out. The enthusiasm after the first film rushes ensured that the project gradually began to take more serious form. Tippeke was initially a part of the show Woud, three movements to the music of Schönberg, Berg & Wagner. The music was performed live in the show and some dancers from the company also danced synchronically in front of the screen. Tippeke was also released onto the market later as a short film.

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.
