Hello! I am a fairly new wielder of the perl and have got a question regarding the module IMDB::Film. Here's my code:
1 #!/usr/bin/perl 2 3 use strict; 4 use IMDB::Film; 5 6 my $film = <>; 7 my $imdbobject = new IMDB::Film(crit => $film); 8 9 if($imdbobject ->status) { 10 print "Title: ".$imdbobject->title(). "\n"; 11 print "Year: ".$imdbobject->year(). "\n"; 12 print "Plot: ".$imdbobject->year(). "\n"; 13 } else { 14 print "Something went wrong"; 15 }
And the output from when I try running the program as such: perl imdb.pl moviename ..
Can't open troy: No such file or directory at imdb.pl line 6. Film IMDB ID or Title should be defined! at imdb.pl line 7
Any ideas? /David
