Hi all, I'm wondering why runtime is appearing in english request but is missing in other languages
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/330459?language=en
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/330459?language=es
http://api.themoviedb.org/3/movie/330459?language=it
Looking in movie history runtime was set on December 15th

Moreover, I noticed high delays between edition and data appearing in api

The runtime is currently a per translation field and it does not fallback to a value. The value edited on December 15 was in Hungarian (hu-HU).
The API has a 8 hour cache so depending when the original request was cached, you have up to 8 hours before you'll see the website changes be reflected on the API.
