Tianyi is well-known in Heaven for never getting a promotion. He's been a disciple at the Hall of Learning for many years and can't become an immortal because there is something from a past life of his that hasn't been dealt with. One day, he unintentionally releases the imprisoned Snow Demon and follows her to the human world. Without supernatural powers on Earth, Tianyi stays with the Snow Demon as a mortal and they fall in love. Learning that it's his own mistake in a previous life that made Snow Demon became what she is, Tianyi decides to wander for over 1,000 years on the road to the netherworld. Finally, Snow Demon sacrifices herself to save Tianyi.
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.
