A nostalgic story about the birth of a movie star and a sad love. A Hollywood dream - the desire of thousands of girls to shine in the movie sky, but also hope and disappointment, the toll of success, the endless waiting for the right one to discover their beauty and talent. This is also the story of Jenny, who found her benefactor in Jacob. This is an intellectual full of doubts about the meaning of his own life and a sad comforter of the lonely, unable to realize his own artistic ambitions except in the fate of others. Alongside him, Jenny comes to know the glitter and glory of "stardom," but also the haunting burden of a debt that is difficult to repay.

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.
