Ratings / Certifications:
N/A
Runtime: 88
Two invisible beings enchant and upset the life of a park: Octave, -the guide of Mr. Pilou- and Annabelle. Annabelle fascinates Octave. Mr. Pilou, unaware of the existence of Octave, walks his dog every day in the park: master and dog will be involved in funny adventures. But there is also ZoƩ and Lino, Mme Pauline, and Caroline the girl who sings like an angel. The Muse of music is everywhere; even the dogs are enchanted by the music. A detour leads to Paris: it is in Paris that Octave remembers tango music. This music will start to unravel his story. A scherzo of the visible and the invisible: are you alive if you are invisible?
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.
