The bright, beautiful and spontaneous ocean is something to wallow in. A young girl plays in the ocean and with the fishes. A dashing surfer rides up on his white steed and declares 'I've come - you'll never have to chop onions again!' Jane wakes up from her dream (or was it a nightmare?) Working at the fish market, she endures the sexual innuendo and double entendres from male customers and fellow workers alike. When matters come to a head, she cleverly takes the situation into her own hands and offers a unique solution to unsolicited sexual advances... An impressionistic animation.

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
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.
