Charlatan Magnifique is a film that brings an entertaining mix of excellent music, spontaneous comical situations as well as comments given by the key people in Magnifico’s life. The film written and directed by Maja Pavlin takes us through Magnifico’s rich, diverse and successful career – from late 1980s, when he began his path in music as member of the band U’REDU, through his solo career marked by numerous hits, such as 24.000 bacci, Kdo je Čefur, Halo gospodična, Silvija, and many others, all the way to his contract with the multinational Sony, his global success with Hir Aj Kam Hir Aj Go, and his focus on music for film.
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.
