Born in New York in 1946, Geoffrey Bowie Outlaw grew up in Greenwich Village and later in western Massachusetts. He attended elementary school and later at the Stockbridge School with longtime friend and Musician Arlo Guthrie. The two would act alongside one another in the 1969 film Alice's Restaurant as partners in crime who got caught dumping the garbage on Thanksgiving. Geoff was apart of the Berkshire Folk Music Society and later played guitar and sang for the band The Fugs. In 1974, Geoff moved to Austin, Texas where he worked at the Split Rail and booked many Musicians. According to his neighbors, Geoff lived the life of a hermit. He devoted the majority of his life to Music. He worked as a local Clerk, a horse riding Instructor at camp, a vivid storyteller and a loyal neighbor. Geoff was considered a local guardian angel to many whom he had watched over in his community for decades.
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.
