Using 'sql', every information available about a movie/person is
fetched with just one query (well... sort of, but it doesn't matter),
because the cost to access a single info would not be much lower that
the cost to fetch the whole data about a movie/person.

If you have serious performance issues, you can try accessing directly
the SQL database; the 'runtime' information (as you can see in the
"info_type" table) has id = 1.
So you can now query the "movie_info" table for rows with the           
movie_id field set to the movieID you're searching and info_type_id set
to 1; the results will be a list of fields, with the 'runtime' data in
the "info" column.
