Hi, I've created the below script (yes, I'm new to this) and I'm trying to just add an entry to the .txt file. Only problem is it's just putting one entry into the file! please tell me how I've screwed this up. Thanks! 
#!/usr/bin/perl -w


$filename = shift || "Fav_mov.txt";
     open (FILE, ">$filename")
     or die "can't open $filename: $!\n";

print "Your favorite movie: ";
$line = <>;
@movies = ();

push @movies, "$line";

foreach $movie (@movies) { 

  print "$movie\n"

  }
print "Thank you!\n";

close(FILE);
