Rudi Køhnke was born on May 10th in 1977 by a Danish painter and sculptor. He was brought up in the name of art and he always knew that he wanted to be an actor. He went to various schools to explore his creative thinking. In the summer of 2005, he got his big break in the Danish feature films "Angels in Fast Motion" (Nordkraft) and "Easy Skanking" (Fidibus) and has since appeared in several movies, TV series and short films. He is a well-established actor in Denmark with a huge international potential. His latest work consists of several leads in feature films. Among them is "The Birdcatcher's Son" which premiered in 2019 in 95 theaters in Sweden. It's on its merry way to International film festivals and distribution throughout Europe and the rest of the world. Also, the stylish horror-thriller "Victim of Love", a Danish-American feature film by Jesper Isaksen is in post-production with expected premiere also in 2019. Short films has always been close to Rudi's heart and he's participated in numerous award winning shorts. Among them is "Ødeland" for which he won "Best Male Actor" at the prestigious "Ekko Shortlist Awards 2016" in Copenhagen, Denmark. He also won "Best Male Actor" for "Heavyweight" (Sværvægter) at "Filmkraft Film Festival 2015". On the stage at "Ekko Shortlist Awards" Rudi announced his comeback and he is indeed turning the boat around. With physical training, hard work and sheer dedication as well as backup from one of the most well established, well known and prestigious agencies in Denmark, Panorama Agency, Rudi is on the path to an international career!
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.
