ustin Paul was born in Princeton, NJ, to Illinois natives Sherwin and Sherry Lynn. After discovering his love for the craft at age 19, he began taking various workshops and programs studying with some of the industry's most prominent teachers; Paramount film coach Bob McAndrew, Robert Easton and Margie Haber, to name a few. He went on to book small roles in ABC's "All My Children" and HBO's "Sex In The City", before auditioning and being selected to study with Tony award winning theater legend, Frank Langella. In four hour classes with an elite twelve students, it was here where Justin reached a deeper level in his work. Langella took a liking to Justin and they parted as friends, before Langella referred Justin to his agent. He then began to study with Emmy award winning director and Colombia University professor, Peter Miner. After working with Peter for a short time, He invited Justin to come to Colombia to work with various up and coming students in the directors program. Although Justin thoroughly enjoyed this, he withdrew after being cast on daytime television drama, One Life to Live, where he received praise for his work as troubled Navy SEAL vet, Wes Granger. He later went on to star in the film "Dry River Road", where he again played a down and out war vet, and the film got notoriety and fond review at the 2011 Palm Springs International Film Festival. Involved in various other projects, Justin is up and back between New York and Los Angeles, where he continues to expand his work.
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.
