After all the successes of his band De Hûnekop, singer Emiel Stoffers has become an arrogant, egotistical, narcissistic, misogynistic, homophobic, coke-snorting misanthrope. He has also picked up a homeless person from the street to do all kinds of odd jobs for him. Meanwhile, under suspicious circumstances, more and more Fryske artists are dying. Later, it turns out that a serial killer is on the loose. Detective Goaitske van Goaitsen investigates the case and warns Emiel. He falls head over heels for her. In response to the threat, Emiel promotes Freddy to new singer of De Hûnekop and becomes manager himself, in order to stay out of the killer's reach.
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.
