Excellency, a revered and extraordinarily wealthy patriarch, spent his life mentoring others, teaching principles of integrity, and guiding countless souls toward virtuous paths. After his death, his family drowns in years of mourning-until his eldest son uncovers a cryptic will. The document demands a gathering of all relatives at the family's ancestral estate to play His Excellency, a ritualistic game designed to test allegiance and expose hidden betrayals. As the heirs converge under the mansion's ominous shadow, long-buried resentments surface, alliances fracture, and the patriarch's true motive emerges: a final lesson in loyalty, where the stakes are legacy, trust, and survival.

Although TheMovieDB might provide a key to a YouTube video, there is no guarantee that the video might be present at YouTube.
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.
