Getting More Info for a Movie?
posted by murkataSTAFFMOD on August 15, 2015 at 5:40 AM
Hi,
I'm building my own application and I need the movie details for the selected movie. I've tried multiple times query for them but I'm not able to get them. Here is what I would like to get:
Year; Story line; Genre; Director/s; Writing; Stars; Release date; Rating; Country; Language; Runtime; Budget; Cast; Pictures;
I'm able to get some of the data but now all of the items above.
Could you please advise how I can get those?
Regards, Ivan

Great, thanks!
This worked great if I know the movie id here, but what if I only have the IMDB id. The application I was developing was scrapping data from IMDB so I can easily get the IMDB instead of adjusting the whoel script to search the id here.When I tried with the append_to_response it seems that the data is not added this time:
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/find/tt0372784?external_source=imdb_id&api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&append_to_response=credits,releases,images
Is there a way to make this working?
Regards, Ivan
