Sixteen-year-old Marisol sings her way across Spain with her father, chasing dreams and survival. On a sunlit campsite in Mallorca, she meets two students and dares to perform at a bullfighting event—hoping to be discovered. When talent scout Mr. Morrison sees her spark, he whisks her into a new world of ambition and refinement, determined to transform her into “a lady with great talent.” But as Marisol rises, she must decide what she's willing to leave behind to become the star she’s always dreamed of being.
Palma de Mallorca is the stage where Marisol and her father make their living by singing and dancing for the tourists who come to the island. Suddenly an attractive, elegant, wealthy American named John Morrison comes into Marisol's life.

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.
