The desert does not tolerate any presence.The sun's rays burn down to the flesh. But the most difficult thing is to push a wheelchair. Diane is in the desert. Diane is pushing Fred, that slightly heavy guy she had two dates with before he gave her a stroke. Alreadỳ that for a sophisticated little Parisian like Diane, it didn't fit with Fred, now she finds herself having to change him when he pees himself. She can't take it anymore. The question is: how to get rid of this handicapped man? So Diane takes advantage of the fact that Fred has distant relatives who live in the desert not far from the Festival. She takes him to visit, but she hopes that his family will keep him and that she will be rid of him. Finally! Only their car has failed them, their water is limited, and the desert is still long. Not to mention the dangerous people they come across. If they want to get out of it, they will have to walk fast. Especially Diane.

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.
