Biography from TheMovieDB

Extrait de Wikipedia, l'Encyclopedie libre.  Comédien amateur dans la troupe des Comédiens Routiers de Léon Chancerel à partir de 1930, il intègre les Copiaus de Jacques Copeau en 1935 et fonde avec Jean Dasté et André Barsacq l'année suivante le Théâtre des Quatre saisons. Il y développe un idéal de décentralisation dramatique et populaire, confiant décors et costumes aux jeunes peintres de sa génération, tels Jean Le Moal et Jean Bazaine.  Directeur de studio des Champs-Élysées de 1944 à 1972, il ouvre ses portes à de jeunes metteurs en scène prometteurs comme Jean Vilar, Roger Blin, Jean-Marie Serreau, Jacques Mauclair, Nicolas Bataille ou Antoine Bourseiller. Il introduit en France les textes de Federico Garcia Lorca, défend le théâtre de Ionesco et lance également la carrière des Frères Jacques et de Jacques Higelin.  Il participe également, comme conseiller artistique, à la naissance du Centre dramatique de l'Ouest en 1949, avec Hubert Gignoux, rencontré auprès de Chancerel.  Informations extraites de l'article Maurice Jacquemont de Wikipedia, licence CC-BY-SA, liste complète des contributeurs sur Wikipedia.

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.

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.
