The Pink Panther operates a farm and battles two crows trying to eat his corn field.
The Pink Panther opens a corn vending stand adjacent to his vast corn field, which is invaded by a tenacious pair of crows who begin devouring the panther's corn. When the panther places a scarecrow next to the field, the crows remove the clothes from the scarecrow and pose as a customer to sample the corn at the Pink Panther's stand. When the panther realizes that he is being tricked, he opens fire upon the crows with his rifle. An escalating war between panther and crows involves the panther's use of a box trap, grenades painted to look like corn, and machine gun shells, none of which stop the two crows from further raids on the field. The Pink Panther builds a brick wall, which one of the crows impacts, and the rain of bricks strikes the second crow. The Pink Panther pities the two seriously injured birds and allows them to eat some of the corn, and the crows summon all their friends to join them!

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.
