Joe Calzaghe is a true living legend and one of the greatest british boxers of all time. "my life story" uniquely documents joe's extraordinary life and stunning rise to greatness, as told by joe himself and those close to him. With exclusive fight footage, interviews with family, friends, opponents and legends of the ring and including commentary and contributions from among others Sugar Ray Leonard, Jack La Motta, Amir Khan, Chris Eubank, Richie Woodhall, Roy Jones Jnr and of course the unique insights of the nimitable Enzo Calzaghe. Using the very latest camera technology, this film also exclusively shows joe in the ring as never before, getting you right in amongst the action. You also get to see an opponents eye view and get to see just what it's like to face the undisputed champion! Over two hours of action packed footage!
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.
