A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Alias:
Tory Griffith
Birthplace:
New York, United States
Tori Griffith started her acting career at the age of 11 in community theatre in the Conejo Valley. She began her work in TV and film at the age of 14. In a short span of time, she has accumulated an impressive body of work, including 20+ plays, commercials and short films. Tori is also one of the lead presenters in Disney's "World of English," and is a lead in a new web series on IFC called "The Fergusons." While acting is her primary passion, Tori is also a singer and was featured in a Nickelodeon promo for the movie, "Annie." In addition, she loves to write and has completed many short stories.
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.
