Biography from TheMovieDB

María Fernanda Yepes Alzate, born on December 23, 1980, in Medellín, Colombia, is an actress and model renowned for her versatility and talent in the entertainment industry. She began her career as a model at the age of 14, participating in both national and international campaigns, including the popular swimwear brand "Agua Bendita," which was featured in the Sports Illustrated editions of 2007, 2008, and 2009. In pursuit of a well-rounded education, she studied psychology and social communication at the Pontifical Bolivarian University, later enrolling in acting school at Caracol Televisión. Her passion for the arts led her to study theater in Barcelona, Spain, and to improve her English in Australia.  Her acting debut came in the telenovela La Diva in 2006, but she gained international fame for her role as Yésica Franco "La Diabla" in Sin senos no hay paraíso (2008–2009). In 2010, she starred in Rosario Tijeras, a performance that earned her the India Catalina Award for Best Lead Actress in a Series. She has participated in several TV productions such as La Teniente (2012), La Piloto (2017), José José: El príncipe de la canción (2018), and Oscuro deseo (Dark Desire, 2020). On the big screen, she starred in the 2023 film Línea de tiempo.  Beyond her artistic career, she is the founder of Casa Felina, a project based in Quintana Roo, Mexico, that promotes respect and love for nature. María Fernanda Yepes continues to be an influential figure in the arts, known for her dedication to both her craft and the environment.

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.
