A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
Kee Wah Chan
Birthplace:
Singapore
Kee Chan was born during a period of social turbulence in Singapore. A move to Australia with his family would set Kee on a path to realizing his childhood dreams. Kee returned to his childhood aspiration of becoming a professional actor. Despite a tentative start playing small roles on Australian television shows, Kee, whose name means "Keeper of the Peace," was cast as Fedallah, the lead support role to Patrick Stewart (Captain Ahab), in "Moby Dick" (1998). A support role in Mission: Impossible II (2000) and several other movies eventually led to a role as Senator Malé-Dee in the last installment of the George Lucas epic, Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005). In 2002, Kee landed a lead role opposite Dennis Hopper in the 22 episode, multi-time dimension drama series, "Flatland" (2002). Widely traveled with numerous location shoots around the world, Kee resides in Los Angeles, California. - IMDb Mini Biography
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.
