Benazir Bhutto (June 21, 1953 – December 27, 2007) was a Pakistani liberal politician and stateswoman of mixed Sindhi, Persian, and Kurdish parentage, who served as 11th and 13th Prime Minister of Pakistan from 1988 to 1990 and 1993 to 1996. She was the first woman to head a democratic government in a Muslim majority nation. She co-chaired the Pakistan People's Party (PPP) from the early 1980s until her assassination in 2007. Throughout her career, she remained a controversial figure for her secularist ideology, nepotism and political inexperience, marriage to an infamous corrupt politician, and accusations of being corrupt herself, but this never faltered her public image. Posthumously, she came to be seen as a champion of democracy and is regarded as an icon for women's rights due to her political success in a male-dominated society.
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.
