Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
Sueyan graduated with a diploma in Performing Arts, Theatre, in Brisbane in 1984. Her first stage production was Summer Time Blues at the La BoƮte Theatre followed by Loves Labour Lost with the Royal Queensland Theatre Company. Her first foray into television was behind the scenes. In 1976 she was a producers Assistant at the ABC on the News and This Day Tonight. In 1979 she got her first on camera role as co-presenter on the children's programme Over Ann's Rainbow and the lifestyle show Your Home. In 1990 Sueyan appeared in two films for Warner Roadshow, Bloodmoon and Deap Sleep with Linda Blair and Tonny Bonner. In between gigs she kept herself busy with VoiceOver work for both radio and television. Sueyan moved to Sydney in 1991 and won the part of Barbara in the English farce Run For Your Wife followed by the Aussie favourite Dimboola. Then it was back to the ABC co-presenting a fun panel show TVTV - 'It felt like coming home, after all those years'. Since then Sueyan has made guest appearances in Water Rates, Marking Time, Between Two Worlds and Back To the Rafters but it was a small budget short film directed by Ryan Cooper called Left Behind that she is most proud of.
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.
