"Dream Home" is a large-scale decoration reality show created by Dragon TV in China. The program selects ordinary families with living difficulties throughout the country, and through the ingenuity of designers, they can complete the seemingly impossible dream of home improvement at a limited cost. The program boldly breaks through the traditional decoration style mainly based on color and soft decoration, and focuses on the transformation of space and the realization of functions. With limited funds and limited space, a thorough renovation is carried out according to the special needs of the clients, which truly solves the housing problem of the entrusted family. By focusing on buildings with different regional characteristics and family stories of different types and backgrounds across the country, it reveals the meaning of home to people and witnesses the happiness that home improvement renovation brings to people.
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.
