Marie Kyselková studied to be a nurse, on the side she performed as a singer and dancer with different ensembles. She also worked as a model for both runway shows as well as a photomodel in Prague. At one of those events she was discovered by Jiří Sequens who gave her a small role in one of his movies in 1955. Kyselková was a regular at the Divadlo S. K. Neumanna theatre in Libeň, a part of Prague. In 1959 she landed the role of Princess Lada in the movie the 'Princess with the Golden Star' - while filming she was already pregnant and after completing the movie, she dedicated herself to her family. She was married twice, her first husband was actor Petr Haničinec, who fathered her son, she also has two daughters from her second marriage. While taking care of her family she took various jobs for different companies and sold small handmade felt items. Later on she took a part time job as portier and grocery shopper for a school in Prague.
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.
