A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).

March 10, 1984
Sarah Klaren, a Southern California native, grew up the "black sheep" of the family. Her love for movies began at a very young age, which served as the igniting fire for her passion. She was often ridiculed and bullied by her peers growing up for her wildly active imagination and bold creativity, though she did not let that stop her. A theatre actress from the age of 11, a self-taught guitar player and singer/songwriter from the age of 13, and a charismatic soul in search of every avenue in which she can express herself artistically, Sarah is an adept performer who knows no bounds and is always seeking a challenge.
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.
