A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Sone Teal (born Spencer Teal in Canada in the 30s) studied with a modern ballet group, and, as Sonne, joined a female impersonation revue, before performing at the 82 Club in New York. He work in Paris with Bambi at the Casino de Paris, and made an European tour. He appeared in the movie called “La Poupée” (The Doll), year 1962, directed by Jacques Baratier, in which he plays the dictator’s wife and also her robot double. Apparently the director did not realize Sonne’s off-stage gender before casting. He died on a Japanese tour in 1966, with four other members of Le Carrousel, in a freak accident flying over Mount Fujiyama.
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.
