With a law degree and a modest job at a municipal library, Rodolphe leads a simple life, torn between his love for South American authors and his secret passion for his colleague Agnès. But she only likes messy relationships and prefers to throw herself into the arms of those who will humiliate her. Chance brings Rodolphe into contact with Aurore Langlois, a ruthless and unscrupulous PR agent who will stop at nothing to satisfy her excessive ambitions. Her current target is François Guerambois, a 45-year-old deputy mayor who is determined to enter the race for ministerial office at any cost... And since everything is about image, Aurore will do everything in her power to perfect the politician's image... and use Rodolphe to achieve it.

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.
