Hi all, it is possible to get a list of all movies by a specific person as director?

Query example: I want a list of all movies directed by Quentin Tarantino

For now, I know I can use /discover/movie with the parameter "with_crew", as below:

/discover/movie?api_key=###&with_crew=138

But it also returns some movies not directed by him (eg. Natural Born Killers) as he is still in the crew.

So, how can I get a list of all movies directed by a specific person?

Hi Piplos,

Not in a single query, no. Since discover doesn't support any kind of job filters. The other side of this would be a person discover, which maybe seems more useful. Regardless, none of that is supported and you'll have to make 2 requests (one to get Quentin's ID, and the other to his /movie_credits method and filter by job).
