After his ex-wife Addolorata's death, Giuseppe called "Cicci", a fifty years old manager, has to custody his son and doughter Matteo and Sara. Cicci has a long time relation with his partner Nikolas, a sincere and smart plumber. Cicci has three sisters Giuditta, Silvana and Norina: they grow him up as a son and they will put him in a very severe test on the way and how he has to grow up his childrens. The three women move to Cicci and Nikolas' house dictating their religious morals about the traditional family, inspired by don Paolo's words, a priest.

Cicci, a man in his fifties, kind in manner and soul, finds himself, following the disappearance of his ex-wife Dolores, from whom he had been separated for several years, to manage the custody of his two 17-year-old twin sons : Sara and Matteo. For over 15 years Cicci has lived with his partner Nikolas, a plumber of sound ethical and moral principles. The coexistence between the two is severely tested by the decision of the Cicci sisters, headed by Giuditta, to move to their home to "protect" their grandchildren from the risk of "immorality" risk of the couple. The love that keeps Nikolas and Cicci together, forces them to suffer the abuse by the three sisters who are motivated by anything but healthy motivations, but by the desire to fragment the balance that the couple has built in time.

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
