A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Marcus Jean Pirae first appeared in the British independent film 'Somnolence'. He came into the Hollywood arena after landing the role of "Mr Funktastic" in MGM's 'Bulletproof Monk', produced by John Woo, starring opposite Chow Yun-Fat, Seann William Scott and Jaimie King. He was next seen in 'La Femme Musketeer' starring as Captain Villeroi, acting opposite Gerard Depardieu, John Rhys-Davies, Michael York and Nastasya Kinski. Shortly after, he began shooting another lead role, in the multi award winning indie feature film 'Stripped Down', closely followed by playing the part of Dr. Marshal Peters in 'Supernova' alongside Peter Fonda. He most recently played the role of 'Alan Campbell Johnson' in 'Viceroy's House' acting with Michael Gambon and Hugh Bonneville. Pirae currently resides in Los Angeles CA.
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.
