Drama
When she was still a little girl, Qiao Shan (Joanne Peh) would pour her heart out to her father who was working overseas through handwritten letters. And receiving his letters and gifts was the greatest happiness she knew then. Hence it's no surprise that she maintains her long-distance relationship with her boyfriend Caleb (Pierre Png) through snail mail. Which explains her frequent visit to the post office. The very place where she crossed paths with destiny - freelance interior designer Zhang Shao Qi (Roy Chiu). Caleb finally returns home. But Qiao Shan's rashness stirs up much unhappiness between them and leads to a break up. Although already besotted with Qiao Shan, Shao Qi encourages her to go back to Caleb as her heart is still with him. Caleb re-accepts Qiao Shan. Yet an unexplainable sense of loss overcomes her as she returns to his side.
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.
