Who would not remember the impressive robust acting of one of the most outstanding artists of the middle acting generation, a representative of many remarkable characters in which masculine strength dramatically met with the fragility of human feelings? Vlado Muller - a strong human individuality, a suggestive voice, an imposing appearance and an inimitable ability to touch the depths of the human soul, the seriousness of moral dilemmas, sovereignty and weakness. In the current play The Guy Nicknamed Brumteles by screenwriter Peter Ševčovič and director Franek Chmiel, Vlado Muller manages to use the breadth of his talent and ability to extremely sensitively depict the fate of a person whose active life changes in an instant to forced passivity. It is the story of an aging deputy of a large company who, after several heart attacks, is forced to retire early and a little boy who is having a hard time experiencing his mother's relationship with a new man.

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.
