A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Rashaun Baldeo is a versatile storyteller, whose journey spans continents and cultures. Born in Jamaica and having lived across Canada and the United States, Rashaun has spent his life immersed in diverse experiences, which he brings to life through his writing, acting and directing. His storytelling career began with his debut play, "CASH FI GOLD," followed by "THE MEETING POINT" and "MARY’S LAMB," both of which were staged in New York and attracted a combined audience of over 900. Transitioning from stage to screen, Rashaun has expanded his creative repertoire by writing, directing, and starring in films such as "RUNNING" and "LIMIT." His work reflects a deep understanding of the human experience, colored by the varied cultural landscapes he has navigated. Currently, he is eagerly anticipating the release of "VAMPIRE ZOMBIES FROM SPACE," where he takes on the role of Wallace, further showcasing his versatility and passion for storytelling. Whether through stage, screen, or script, Rashaun continues to captivate audiences with narratives that resonate across borders.
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.
