Hans was a model in a photo shoot conducted by photographer Robert Howard in 1988. While living in Hawaii, Hans had the opportunity to become a catwalk model in Paris, France and Milan, Italy. After feeling bored with his job, he moved to Sydney, Australia. Hans stayed there for twelve years to work in information technology. Then, during a visit to Jakarta, he lived in the same apartment as the late Ria Irawan and Dewi Irawan. Ria uploaded a portrait of Hans on social media and a director asked him to act. Hans also entered the world of acting for the first time by starring in the television film When Bung di Ende in 2013.
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.
