A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Prajwala Dixit is an author, journalist, documentary filmmaker and theatre practitioner whose works have been produced and published by local and national organizations, including the National Film Board of Canada, CBC, The Globe and Mail, The National Post, POV, J-Source, Newfoundland Quarterly, Breakwater Books, the Arts and Culture Centre, and Artistic Fraud. Her work often marries the two worlds she belongs to—India and Canada—while elevating melanin-rich voices. Winner of the Arts and Letters Award, and a silver finalist at the Atlantic Journalism Awards, Prajwala also spearheads an annual fundraiser called Diyas for Diversity that has raised more than $9,000 to add 178 new titles to the public libraries of Newfoundland and Labrador, with the goal of amplifying literary diversity. She calls both Bengaluru and St. John’s home, where she lives with her family, consuming stories through film and books.

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.
