In the latest version of "Liao Zhai: Lian Suo" released in 2014, the scholar Yang Ziwei met Lian Suo at a cemetery. The two did not do that, but wrote poems and painted every night. His friend Xue Sheng learned that Yang Ziwei had a woman with him every night, so he brought his friends to visit Yang's house, which frightened Lian Suo so much that she dared not show up. Yang asked Lian Suo for forgiveness. Later, Lian Suo cried and complained that an evil ghost wanted to force her to be a concubine. Yang fought the evil ghost with a sword in her dream. At the critical moment, she and a warrior named Wang shot the evil ghost to death. Yang and Lian Suo were together every day. One day, Lian told Yang that because she had been eating cooked food and receiving human breath for a long time after she died, her bones had become alive and she had the conditions for resurrection, but she had to have sex with Yang. However, Yang would definitely get a serious illness.
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.
