Naughty but lovable, Yumurcak, the darling of the neighborhood, lives with his father Nihat, who makes a living as a driver. Every day, he does mischievous things that drive the neighborhood shopkeepers crazy, but no one can stay mad at him. Nihat has told Yumurcak that his mother is dead, but in reality, she is still alive. The reason Nihat separated from Selma years ago was because Selma's malicious stepmother and nephew framed Nihat for robbing the factory where he worked. One day, Nihat gets into an accident and ends up in prison. When Yumurcak visits his father in prison, Selma is also there and sees him. She meets him without revealing that she is his mother. Selma now wants to take her son back; however, Nihat strongly opposes this. Taking Yumurcak back and rebuilding their home will not be easy for Selma.
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.
