Marvin (18) comes from a well-off background and lives in a chic suburban villa. His mother, a successful real estate agent, has already planned his future. But Marvin has a completely different idea of life: his great passion is music - this is where he wants to prove himself and show what he can do, without any money from his mother. After meeting the legendary rapper D W Court, he decides to take his life into his own hands for good. When he meets the clique around the cool Osman and the pretty Stella, his dream seems to come true. For the first time, he feels truly respected and taken seriously. He also falls head over heels in love with Stella. But all this comes at a price: in order to be accepted, he conceals his true origins. When Osman discovers the secret, the deception threatens to be exposed. Now Marvin has to put all his eggs in one basket...

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.
