Goloka Bolte is 2 time Emmy Winning Supervising Casting Director and founder of Creative Content Group, a Los Angeles based content, talent development and casting company. She's been nominated for 5 Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Casting for a Reality Program, every year since the category was created, as well as 3 CSA Artios Awards.  Born in India to Haitian and American parents, Goloka's path from religious community to unscripted casting director and producer was an unlikely one. She began her career in television in 2003 when hired to find talent for season 2 of the FOX's hit series Joe Millionaire, and over the last 17 years she's gone on to serve as supervising casting director for almost 200 projects, ranging from newsworthy television events like the "Same Love" mass wedding (with Madonna & Queen Latifah) at the Grammys, to Emmy winning cultural phenomenons like RuPaul's Drag Race (2009).  Her credits include programs like Say I Do on Netflix, RuPaul's Drag Race, Haute Dog, FBoy Island, the 56th Annual Grammy Awards, the Real Housewives, Let's Make a Deal, the Million Dollar Listing franchise, Millionaire Matchmaker, MasterChef, Swamp People, The Joker's Wild with Snoop Dogg, and Bravo's Sweet Home Oklahoma. Goloka co-founded The Casting Firm in 2010, and in early 2020 launched Creative Content Group to focus on developing talent and content for streaming services, brands, and linear networks.

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.
