Louis Findlay is a British actor, born and raised in Kent, UK who won the award for "Best Actor" at the Los Angeles Actor Awards in 2017 for his performance in Days to Come (2017) - a short film based on mental health, that he also wrote and produced. The film won several accolades in Europe for best story, trailer and performance. His career began playing Judge Turpin in Sweeney Todd & Mitch in A Streetcar Named Desire on stage. Louis went on to perform as a parkour athlete in the Opening Ceremony at London's 2012 Olympics, which was directed by Danny Boyle. Fresh off his previous successes Louis has continued to write and produce his own work including short and feature films.
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.
