Fifteen years ago, a young girl saved a young boy from drowning at a farm. Upon his rescue, they become friends and the two of them pray under the Star Apple tree together to wish for happiness for each other throughout their lives, and for them to meet again after fifteen years. But fifteen years later, circumstances have changed. The boy, Tao Si, is now a successful businessman who wishes to avoid his fixed marriage, while the young girl, Cao Kerui, has fallen for an orphan boy who grew up on the farm with her. Incidentally, the orphan boy is actually the boyfriend of Tao Si's future fiancé. How will these four people overcome these obstacles and realize that love can be found in the least expected places?
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.
