The story is about an old feud between two people - Liu Lang Yue and the feudal lord of the Yue clan. Apparently, horrible things were done to Lang Yue as a child, which left her horribly scarred, and now, she has to use a fake face. Since then, she has hidden in a valley with two disciples, Jin Cheng and Jin Bao, and their buddies, a pack of wolves with Lassie-like tendencies. As fate would have it, Lord Yue's eldest son decides to go hunting for wolves, and he ends up getting skewered with his own banner by Jin Cheng. But Jin Cheng is also severely injured, having taken half-a-dozen arrows in the process. Who else would save him but Tong Fu Er, daughter of the master physician Tong Yuan, the person who semi-healed Lang Yue in the first place?

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.
