Lee Whey
Lee Whitaker
Lee Whittaker has worked extensively on both sides of the lens all over the world. Whittaker began as one of the top stunt performers in the industry with two decades of elite work on some of Hollywoods biggest blockbuster films. After a decade's experience as a second unit director and stunt coordinator, Whittaker safely and creatively pushes the boundaries of designing & capturing the most intense extreme action through innovative styles of cinematography. Whittaker is slated to direct his first feature-length film, the action-thriller "The Fuse," for Shattered Image Films. His Bollywood debut came with the film "Vishwaroopam", for which he did second unit direction & action director. The film is now passed the 200 crore mark and becoming the biggest film in India. He Also will direct 2nd unit & action direct another top Indian film, "Valai," to be released summer 2013. Writing scripts as well as music has kept him in multi-categories in a booming industry. Already placing 2 songs in feature films, he will release his 2nd album," Hanging On A Moment," on iTunes through Event Horizon Records. "Staying creative through a constant state of discovery & evolution has always been a goal of mine," Lee says which has always kept him outside the box. Not always the Action Director, Lee will helm as director for dramatic short film, "City Of Angels," late spring 2013 which looks to be an Oscar contender with powerful emotional content. - IMDb Mini Biography

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.
