Seasoned Chinese frog closure instructor Kwok-Law Mei-lan has raised her children and grandchildren by herself. She discovers everybody’s issues before her 70th birthday. Her eldest son Kwok Tak-kan’s business has failed, and he is also divorcing his wife Tian Yu-fei. Her second daughter Kwok Tak-bo and her son Kwok King-hin are drifting apart, and her relationship with her boyfriend has also ended. Her youngest son Kwok Tak-ming loses his job as Tak-kan has got him into trouble. While Mei-lan wants to help her children solve their problems, she also plans to team up with her favorite disciple Chong Zi-chang to pass down the craft. Meanwhile, Tak-kan and his siblings keep contradicting each other. And gangster Kwok Chung-shek abruptly shows up and claims he has 50% ownership of the Kwoks’ property. Can Mei-lan’s strict adherence to the Kwoks motto “Keep walking and there’s a way out” unite family members in the confrontation against the enemy?
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.
