Finding movies released within a specific year

I was wondering how to get a list of movies that were released within a certain year. Generally I am looking for a way to store this data using Python, but I have no clue on how to do it. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Hi dmarti98,
While I can't offer much help when it comes to Python, from the API side of things you can do this a few different ways with the /discover/movie method. You can use any combination of the
primary_release_year,primary_release_date.gte,primary_release_date.lte,release_date.gte,release_date.lteandyearparams.Cheers.

That's what I wanted! I had troubles making the URL for the API search. Thanks for the help :)
