A story that follows a married couple during their "trial period" and the mother-in-law who turns into a "strict examiner" to put the relationship between the newly-weds to the test. Beijing drifter Ying Bao walked down the aisle on her wedding day wearing the jade bracelet that her mother-in-law gave her. At her honeymoon, she discovers that the bracelet in her possession is a fake and she becomes extremely anxious at the thought of losing a valuable family heirloom that was also a seal of her mother-in-law's approval. Ying Bao's husband Shi Da Yan, mother-in-law Li Shuang Qin and many others are pulled into a commotion over the real and fake bracelets especially when there turns out to be more than one. When the secret is revealed, a change in the fate of a family from turbulent to prosperous times emerges. Everyone realizes that although the jade bracelet is precious, it can never compare to the worth of people’s hearts. Even if an object disappears, love will last forever.

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.
