When star soccer player Edwin Kuijpers is found dead on the center spot of the Amsterdam Arena, it is a stab in the heart for all Ajax fans, and especially for Vledder. He is therefore more determined than ever to assist De Cock in the investigation behind the scenes of the popular football club. They discover that the victim was about to transfer to a club in England. Could jealousy be a factor, or is there more to it than that? De Cock proves himself to be a skilled referee with a keen eye for detail. Just as calm seems to be returning to Ajax circles, a second death occurs. This time, it appears to be suicide, but De Cock refuses to be deterred.

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.
