Twenty years ago, an operation causes pediatric trainees Fong Chung-yan and Hui Kam-fung to become foes. Now Chung-yan is a consultant pediatric surgeon at a top hospital. He and Kam-fung, who is employed by a second-tier hospital, meet up again due to a liver transplant operation. Chung-yan coaxes Kam-fung into joining his elite team. He even invites cardio-thoracic surgeon Cheung Yee-sum and Chief of Service, Surgery Mak Hoi-kei to pave the way for building a pediatrics center. Chung-yan and Kam-fung also gradually put their differences aside as they repeatedly play certain roles in touching and sometimes tragic stories about sick children. Meanwhile, pediatric surgeon Man Pak-hei and anesthesia trainee Lin Cheuk-ying find out that particular operation performed all those years ago was associated with some medical blunder. They wonder whether they should reveal the truth.
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.
