Olivia Castanho is an American actress who was born and raised in South Windsor, Connecticut. She started acting in local theatre at the age of 6 and continued throughout her teenage years until moving to Los Angeles when she was 18. She studied acting in the University of Southern California's BFA program, where she won the prestigious Jack Nicholson award for outstanding performances in her junior year. After graduating, she landed the leading role of Emmy in the indie horror flick "Headshots," then starred in the short film "Don't Blow It" for which she and her costar won Best Duo of the Year at the Top Shorts Film Festival. Olivia booked a small voice over role in the English dubbed show "Marianne" on Netflix. After that, she continued to voice many roles in Netflix foreign film and tv, such as Ling Yun in the series "Triad Princess."
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.
