Huo Weimin, a veteran actor from Mainland China, has been a performer for more than 40 years since he joined the Henan Jiaozuo Drama Troupe in '78. He has been on stage for more than ten years, starring in more than ten plays, including "From the Silent", "Who is Strong", "Silent in the Night", "The People's Secretary" and "The Man from Taihang Mountain". After that, he studied at the Central Academy of Drama in 1990, where he underwent systematic, scientific and rigorous acting training and theory studies. Afterwards, he acted in many films and dramas such as "Good Father, Good Mother", "The Red Spider", "What's the Mian Ji Meeting", "The Maze of the Heart", "February Spring" and "The Hunt". My motto: "Be an honest person, act seriously".
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.
