Nguyen Tan Hoang is a video artist whose work interrogates forms of desire in queer Asian male identities, Vietnamese diasporic cultural production, and Asian American popular culture. His short experimental videos have screened nationally and internationally in venues such as New York’s MOMA, the Musée National d’Art Moderne at the Centre Georges Pompidou, and The Getty Center. His critical writings have appeared in Porn Studies, Vectors: Journal of Culture and Technology in a Dynamic Vernacular, GLQ, and Resolutions 3: Video Praxis in Global Spaces. His book, A View from the Bottom: Asian American Masculinity and Sexual Representation (Duke UP, 2014), looks at the depiction of gay Asian bottomhood in film, video, and the Internet. He has programmed film, video, and performance work for a variety of international film festivals and other venues. He is Associate Professor of English and Film Studies at Bryn Mawr College.

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.
