A 90's iconic slice of life genre drama directed by the famous Novelist of Bangladesh, Humayun Ahmed, based on his own novel, Nokkhotrer Raat (Starry Night), centered around the ups and downs of a middle class family of six, casting Abul Hayat, Asaduzzaman Nur, Sarah Zaker, Shomi Kayser and many popular faces from the 90's. The story starts by showing a typical day of a middle class family and it unfolds by revealing different chapters that a family goes through, from day to day life, thereby unfolding an extraordinary tale of love, sorrow, struggle, crisis, heart break, sudden demise, and above all, unity and integrity, out of a seemingly ordinary family.

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.
