The twenty-eighth entry in the "Youth H" series, which produces works in a variety of genres from up-and-coming filmmakers that focus on coming-of-age and sexual themes. Director Oguri Haruhi, who drew attention for his Toilet and Women, depicts the growth of four young men who reunite when their close friend dies. High school graduate Chikage (Tanaka Ryuto) spends his days hanging around with his best pal Aki (Nagata Iemori) at a seaside town. One day their close friend En dies in an accident, and their old buddies Dai (Shiomi Daiki) and Beyan return from Tokyo for the funeral.
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.
