I can usually find the answers to most factual questions regarding stars and films from the 1970s and earlier, or tell you where to look. I'm not going to be able to help you with more recent films, and especially with made-for-TV movies from the 90s and later.

Experience
I've run a Web site on the general topic of classic movies for over ten years, and am a lifelong movies fan.
