Danny Hutton is a musician and a voice-over artist. Hutton's family moved from Ireland to Los Angeles when he was a child, and he had an early job working at a warehouse for Disney/Buena Vista Records. He moved on to doing voice-over work and singing songs for MGM and Hanna Barbara cartoons, during which time he was one of thousands who unsuccessfully tried out to be in The Monkees. In 1968, Hutton became a founding member of the 70s rock group Three Dog Night and remained with the band until their official breakup in 1977, after which he managed LA-area punk bands and fronted the Danny Hutton Hitters. When Three Dog Night reformed in the mid-80s, he returned to the band and remains an active band member.
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.
