Ma Yiming graduated from university and worked as a photojournalist in a newspaper office, dreaming of creating his own film festival. Yiming wants to find beauty around him and wants to use nostalgia to explore the confusion of modern urban people. The old artist Xu Lao, who is engaged in root carving, suggested Yiming and him go to the mountains to observe the simplicity and rural spirit of the people in the mountains. Yiming fulfilled the old man's will and went to Dashan and opened his own film exhibition. Following the proposal of the newspaper director, the theme of the village was changed to change the theme of the film exhibition. The film festival really succeeded. Yiming finally got rid of the hustle and bustle of the city and walked on the land of China to pursue the true meaning of beauty. He finally became a promising young photographer.
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.
