John Scott Horton

Biography from TheMovieDB

John-Scott is a product of the emergent Texas film scene of the late 90s and early 2000s that launched the likes of Richard Linklater, Matthew McConaughey, Robert Rodriguez, the Wilson Brothers, Renee Zellweger, and Wes Anderson. While studying screenwriting at the University of Texas film school, he became active in the local film scene, working at Linklater's Austin Film Society and the first two Alamo Drafthouse Cinemas. He was also active in front of the camera, where a handful of national commercials and roles in 'Fast Food Nation' and 'The Lying Game' eventually paved a pathway to Los Angeles.  A Jack-of-All-Trades, John-Scott has been a consistent presence since 2012 in television, film, print, and music as well. Following in the footsteps of other balladeers / actors such as Kris Kristofferson and Harry Connick Jr., Horton brings an easy manner and southern charm to his work, making him a compelling romantic lead or weekend troubadour.  - IMDb  Mini Biography By: NC Writeups

About the Movie Section

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:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

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.
