Biography from TheMovieDB

Cody Kilpatrick Steele was raised in Cleveland, Ohio by a long line of humble electricians. Steele always saw himself as an entertainer in his youth and fell deeply in love with the art of acting as he grew into adulthood. He trained formally at Cleveland State University, where he honed his craft with tools such as Chekov, Stanislavski, and Suzuki. While attending Cleveland State, Cody performed in The Dybbuk and Angels in America. Both roles received Irene Ryan Award Nominations from the American College Theatre Festival. His training focused on the stage but since 2015 Cody has found a home in the world of film. Steele is known for the feature films Sincerely, Me (2016) for which he won "Best Actor in a Feature" at the Hollywood Boulevard Film Festival, and Viscera (2020). Cody has also starred in numerous short films and commercials throughout the late 2010's and was named "Best Actor" by Cleveland's Scene Magazine in 2019. Although his presence on stage and screen is influenced by names such as James Dean, Jack Nicholson, and Heath Ledger, Cody insists that his most prominent influences in life are his treasured family and friends.

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.
