Director and screenwriter Marco André Lavagnino was born in 2001. Originally from El Salvador, his youth transpired in Mexico City and New York. In 2023, he graduated from The College of New Jersey with a bachelor’s degree in Communication Studies with a specialization in Film/TV/Radio after also doing a semester abroad in Toronto, Canada. His first short film BLINK (2022) was chosen to represent the University of Toronto at the RPCÉ program of the Oscar-qualifying Festival du Nouveau Cinéma. It was also screened at the BAFTA British Short Film Competition Qualifying Carmarthen Bay Film Festival and given an Honorable Mention at the 2023 Short to the Point Film Festival. His sophomore short film ANTE EL PIE DERECHO (2023) is currently going through its festival run. Marco André was the co-cinematographer for a feature film titled MIDNIGHT BOULEVARD (2024). He is scheduled to DP a music video for an independent artist in Toronto, accompanying his previous work in MQ1A (2022).

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.
