A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Jodi Cash is a journalist from Atlanta living in Barcelona. “The Green Flash” is an extension of her story, “High Times and Low Tides at Reefer Beach,” which was published on The Bitter Southerner, featuring photos by Ethan Payne. Her work has also been featured in Hidden Compass, Scalawag, Paste, Kinfolk, ArtsATL, and Georgia Health News. She co-founded The Seed & Plate, which features stories about community through the lens of sustainable agriculture. In 2019, she published “Concrete Jungle: A Foraged Fruit Cookbook,” in collaboration with the Atlanta-based nonprofit of the same name. She’s a 2024 Hidden Compass Pathfinder Prize finalist. “The Green Flash” is her first film.
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.
