TV series adapted from the chinese novel (结缘) Entwined Fate written by the author of Desperate Love. Set in the 5 dynasties and 10 kingdoms period, Yuan Yue Zheng could have led a carefree and happy life.... if she did not love the ambitious Eldest Prince Feng Lin. Meanwhile, Feng Lin's younger brother, the Crown Prince Feng Xun is deeply in love with Yue Zheng. However, Yue Zheng does not know that Feng Lin is secretly in love with General Du's daughter Du Si Yu or that he is planning to take his brother's position to become the next King. When Yuan Lin decides to use Yue Zheng to help him get the throne through a marriage alliance, Yue Zheng is overjoyed and marries him. Yuan Lin did not care for Yue Zheng at all initially but slowly falls in love with her after the countless times she sacrifices herself to help him. But despite his pure intentions towards her now, Yuan Li's past actions and motives come back to haunt him, causing Yue Zheng to misunderstand him. Du Si Yu uses this chance to marry him but fails to regain Feng Lin's love. Eventually Feng Lin's persistence and sincerity to Yue Zheng resolves their misunderstanding and he successfully recaptures Yue Zheng's heart again.
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.
