Builder who loves to destroy. Shy eccentric, bold alarmist, austere hedonist, and generous usurper. Inventor of life. He would never stop dismantling and demolishing until he got what he wanted. Walls and objects would cease to exist; a captured light would be all that was left. A life of a man who never gave in and was admired as well as beaten for it. Can one stick to one's precision and purity without liquidating oneself and his surroundings? Is it possible to live with a visionary? What is the price of living without compromise? Collage as a method, fragments of memories, searching for one’s identity, ich-form. A feature documentary about the life and death of a radical architect David Kopecky.

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.
