Biography from TheMovieDB

Accomplished actor and martial artist, Eiji Inoue impacted audiences with his performance in In the Cage (2013) as the character San Tao. He has also appeared in many well-known films such as The Last Samurai, Click, and Pearl Harbor. For the episode "Chimera" from NCIS, Eiji Inoue impressed production so much that they switched a role from one concept to another just so that Eiji could play the character, Satoshi Takada. During Eiji Inoue's acting career of 23 years, he has appeared in more than 60 plays. He is best known for his role as Takeshi Kawabata in Take Me Out a play by Richard Greenberg. This Tony Award winning production made a revival in Los Angeles and continued to be extended 3 times winning both critics' and audiences hearts alike. Not only is Eiji Inoue a driven and talented actor, he is also extremely experienced in Chinese martial arts, specifically Wushu Kungfu. With over 30 years of martial arts training and competitions, Eiji is adept in 18 different styles and weaponry uses. Some of which are Broad Sword, Double Broad Sword, Straight Sword, Long Spear, 3 Section Staff, Japanese Samurai Sword, etc. Because Eiji continues to perfect his craft by participating in theater when not working on films and TV, he has had the privilege of being cast alongside prolific actors such as Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ben Affleck, Josh Hartnett, Adam Sandler, Meg Ryan, Arnold Schwarzenegger, and many more. Awards: ADA Award for Best Ensemble Cast for The Box. Nominations: His independent film Pearlblossom Hwy (2012) for AFI's Film Festival Top 10.

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.
