huda haddad (b. 1946)

Birthplace:
Lebanon

Born:
August 15, 1946

Hoda Haddad was born shortly after the Lebanese independence (born August 15, 1944) to a modest family in the capital city of Lebanon, Beirut. Her parents were Wadih Haddad, a print worker, and Lisa Boustany, a housewife. She had two sisters Nouhad (known by her artistic name Fairuz), Amal, and a brother Joseph. Hoda comes from the Chouf district as her husband Chawki Ziade. She has two children: Dina and Joseph.  Hoda Haddad joined her sister, the great artist Fairuz, in most of her artistic work, even though she only occasionally performs short roles. This did not prevent her from achieving a lot of glory and fame, which accompanies both Rahbani’s songs and participation in her huge successful works of films and plays.[2] The series is called “Yawm Yawm Liyum” (Day of the Year), the first part of 1972, and the second part of 1979. She sang with her sister Fairuz in the play “Mays Al-Reem”, “Lulu”, “Sahrat Hob” and “Petra” (Petra) in 1977.[3] There was also the play “Akher Ayyam Sikrat” by Mansour Rahbani in 1998, and finally “Opera al-Dayaa” in 2009. The lyrics were presented by the program in 1971. Riadh Sharara also presented the show “Sahour and Ghounieh”, in which she sang for the first time the song “Khalini Hobak”, with lyrics by Ziad al-Rahbani.

The Search Form


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.
