Where has Prince Rujan disappeared to? Has he gone to slay a dragon? But where is the dragon? Military veteran Plavák, with the help of the dwarf Trpaja and Princess Aurora, uncovers even more. A Czech Television fairy tale about the victory of love and goodness, but also about the wisdom and mature decisions that the heirs of ruling dynasties come to in their new positions. Prince Rujan of the Kingdom of Arcadia kills the dragon to which the princess of the Principality of Aquitaine was to be sacrificed. We can rejoice that good has triumphed once again, but it won't be that easy. We are at the very beginning of a story in which evil will sometimes prevail and the injustices of the past will come back to haunt the new generation. The old familiar truth that every evil deed will eventually come back to haunt you is reflected in the fate of all fairy-tale heroes.

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.
