Takizawa Hideaki was a Johnny's Jr. leader making him famous long before he even debuted as part of Tackey & Tsubasa. When he isn't busy promoting or performing as part of Tackey & Tsubasa, he acts in doramas. Although he has acted in several doramas, it wasn't until 1999 when he starred in the controversial "Teacher/Student Love Affair" dorama Majo no Jouken (also known as Forbidden Love), that the public began to recognize his acting skills. In January 2004, he became the youngest leading role actor onstage at the Tokyo Imperial Theatre for the musical DREAM BOY. On some occasions, he would compose songs. 894 hakushi, My Angel You're Angel, and KAT-TUN's Fight All Night are some of the songs he composed. He also directed ARASHI's first PV, titled A.RA.SHI. Among fans, he is famous and credited for the creation of the "ero-ero" dance. In 2009, Takizawa started releasing solo music apart from Tackey & Tsubasa.

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.
