Adam Hurtig was born in August of 1985, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. His interest in performing sparked in High School, after being thrust into a musical by a long-time family friend and drama teacher. From there he continued his pursuit for the craft in a post-secondary education from the University of Manitoba. Although this was a short-lived endeavor, the seed was firmly planted. This brought him to a more individual exploration of performance until ultimately landing in his current passion of film and television. Since then, Adam has appeared in a number of roles such as Flag Day (2021) with Sean Penn, the horror franchise, Chucky, in both Curse of Chucky (2013) and Cult of Chucky (2017), The Ice Road (2021) with Liam Neeson, a wide range of romantic comedies, action, and horror movies, and now most recently Spencer Sisters (2023 - TV Series). When not performing, Adam has a wide range of hobbies and enjoys interior design, carpentry, gardening, writing, and coaching budding actors for film and television.

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.
