A work in constant progress (and occasional regress).
Brad Carr has worked on over 279 film, video, television and theater productions in multiple departments. Son to a retired Air Force Colonel, free time was spent watching second-run movies like "Tank" and "Dune". Acquired his first exposure to a film set, when visiting original "Robocop" filming in Dallas. Step-son to former Mayor of Ottawa, Canada. During his freshman year at Lake Forest High School Brad uncovered a hidden desire and talent for fictional writing. At the same time he became extremely active in the high school's vast theater program working in stagecraft and acting. Sophomore year he began telecommunications and drama classes. Once again Brad discovered another hidden talent of producing and directing short videos and began sweeping the in-class "Telecom" awards. He pursued theater and video throughout the rest of high school and after graduating in 1998 he took a summer film program at Columbia College in Chicago.

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.
