This film is well made and has educational value at the same time. It gives a reality check to the problem, and a validation to the Cystic Fibrosis sufferers. The number of positive reactions to the film from those afflicted with Cystic Fibrosis , attests to the emotional value as such. The humor used to substantiate the suffering of the patients gives such a film a great human touch. Hail to the producers, and especially a true memorial for one of them, Robert Schmidt, who so tragically passed away last year after filming was finished. I certainly hope that any income from this film will be donated to research for Cystic Fibrosis, and the film itself could be used to further promote outreach for this purpose.
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.
