A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).

From playing Mr. Banks in Mary Poppins to the Pirate King in Pirates of Penzance, each role not only showcased Joe's versatility but ignited a true passion for acting. The thrill of seeing an audience respond—whether with fear, laughter, or tears—revealed the power he had to connect with strangers on a deeply emotional level. In 2020, Joe made a pivotal leap into screen acting. His debut roles in a small feature film and Apple TV’s Masters of the Air were game-changers, refining his craft and fueling a deeper, more determined drive for screen work. Since then, he has worked on feature films across England—in Bristol, Cornwall, Cambridge, and London—alongside the prestigious National Film and Television School (NFTS). Now, Joe is ready to take his screen career to the next level, actively seeking global opportunities to broaden his range, collaborate with visionary filmmakers, and keep audiences riveted to the screen.
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.
