There are two separated keywords: 'plot' is the content of the
"plot summary" page; if it exists it's always a list of strings (because
there can be more than one plot).  The strings are in this format:
  "Name Of The Writer Of This Summary::Summary"
The other one is 'plot outline' and, if present, is a string containing
the "plot outline" you can read in the main page of a movie.

Example:

  from imdb import IMDb
  i = IMDb()
  m = i.get_movie('0358082')
  # print a list of strings.
  print m.get('plot')
  # print a short string.
  print m.get('plot outline')

  
That's true for both "http" and "mobile" data access systems: for
"local" and "sql" the 'plot outline' is not available in the plain
text data file.

I've done a fast test with the movie you pointed to, and it seems
to work correctly; if you find a bug, let me know!
