A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).

Chris Newhook
Christopher Newhook is a self-taught artist who freelances from his studio in Placentia, Newfoundland, Canada. He has been working in a variety of art media for over thirty years and has shown his artwork in solo and group exhibitions while also selling his work around the world. He has contributed artwork to books, magazines and websites as well as designed cards, murals, logos and interior-exterior static displays. He is a graphic artist and photographer who also works in the field of publishing, fine art consulting, art education and set design. These multiple talents allow him to move fluidly from easel to camera to computer, blending the qualities of each medium to create a rich variety of artwork in varying styles and dimensions. Christopher has an affection for history, culture and nature. When not in the studio, he can be found wandering the coastlines, barrens and the countless remarkable places this province offers, trying to capture the essence of Newfoundland and Labrador. Christopher presently works out of his studio overlooking the Orcan River in the ancient historical town of Placentia, Newfoundland.

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.
