Manako Amano is a professor of engineering at a leading university and has been studying “failure studies”. Rather than pursuing responsibility for failure, it is a study that helps to prevent recurrence by investigating the direct causes and the background and social causes. The various accidents that occur every day are always failures, and accident investigation is Manako's best fieldwork. Their activities go beyond engineering and spread with curiosity, such as corporate fraud and medical accidents. Personality is self-paced and selfish. He loves failure with the belief that “growth/progress will always be accompanied by failure” and frustrates the other party in order to shine his eyes on the failure story. However, the genius with a built-in failure database of east and west in the brain, Manako, reached the truth of the accident today!

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.
