Strict Film Search

Are there any plans to allow for exact film searches. e.g. If I do an API movie search for "Silence" Year = 2013. I get back 5 results. If it was exact, I would get back 1. I appreciate that the first result will be the one I am looking for.
A boolen flag would be handy. Defaulted to false.
Just curious.

No, there is no current plan. The search is designed to always return exact matches first so you can always just take the first item if that's the workflow you want to use.
