Céline Tran, born April 9, 1979 in Lyon, is a personal development coach, comic book scriptwriter and French blogger, former pornographic actress from 2001 to 2013 under the pseudonym of Katsumi (2001-2007) then Katsuni (2007-2013). She was for more than ten years one of the stars of the X industry in which she made a career first in France and then in the United States. Also a producer and on occasion a director, she has won numerous specialized awards, including various AVN Awards (including three times that of the best foreign actress) and two Golden Hots. In 2013, she retired from porn and returned to France. She then uses her real name in her various public activities, including actress, blogger, screenwriter and comic book editor, or sex coach.
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.
