A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Larissa Lowthorp is a multi-award winning creative director, executive producer, writer, designer and celebrated futurist who leverages mixed media to touch hearts while transforming lives. In June 2025, Ms. Lowthorp appeared on BET Network's Raw & Uncut Experience Women in Film & TV panel-presented in partnership with Sony Music, Live Nation, Raw Nation Entertainment, and the Black Hollywood Chamber of Commerce-where she shared expert insights on shifting industry dynamics and the future of BIPOC representation both in front of and behind the camera. That same year, she was honored by the Rebuild Your Laugh Foundation and the City of Los Angeles for her visionary leadership in community outreach, education, and advocacy through the power of narrative media. With a client roster that includes industry giants such as Warner Bros., Universal, DreamWorks, Paramount, and Fox, Larissa has earned a reputation for delivering excellence across multi-billion dollar projects. Her expansive portfolio spans production, marketing, creative direction, theatrical distribution, merchandising, and financial strategy. Larissa's visionary work, purpose-driven philosophy, and philanthropic impact have been featured in Forbes, The Wall Street Journal, Huffington Post, The Washington Post, and The Hollywood Reporter. She has been named one of Authority Magazine's Inspiring Women in Hollywood and, in separate recognition, twice commended by the publication as a Social Impact Hero. She was lauded as a Woman of Poise and Purpose by The Phoenix Magazine, and distinguished by Welum Magazine on its coveted list of Women Who Inspire.

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.
