Take a step back in time. Journey through the changing landscape of the San Antonio River Valley as Gente de Razón captures the essence and harmony of the many people who occupied the valley before, during, and after the missions. A vast landscape of riverways supporting an endless bounty of wildlife and flora created the backdrop for the people we know very little about today. Directed by noted National Park Service film producer John Grabowska, Gente de Razón delicately examines current interpretations of who these people were, the intricacies of their daily lives, and where they went, as it chronicles the ever-changing face of San Antonio and its people.
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.
