Alison A. Elliott (born 19 May 1970) is an American actress. Elliott was born in San Francisco, CA, the daughter of Barbara, a teacher of nursing, and Bob Elliott, a computer executive. She moved with her family to Tokyo, Japan when she was 4 years old, and then moved back to San Francisco when she was 8, where she later attended an arts high school. At 14, her modeling career began, and in 1989, she moved to Los Angeles to star as a teen-aged model on the TV sitcom Living Dolls (1989). She is perhaps best known for her roles in films, such as Underneath (1994), The Spitfire Grill (1996), The Wings of the Dove (1997), and Birth (2004). She also had one of the leading roles in the BBC production, Buccaneers (1995). In the 2007 western The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Elliott plays the memorable role of Martha Bolton, the older sister of Robert Ford. In addition to her film roles, Elliott has narrated audio books, including Belle Prater's Boy by Ruth White and its sequel The Search for Belle Prater.  Description above from the Wikipedia article Alison Elliott, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia

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.
