I think I've understood the problem: you're using the "mobile" data access system (or "http", but you don't have the lxml Python library installed), right? The IMDb site recently has changed the SGML/XML char-refs in its html, and the "mobile" data access system (and partially not even "http") didn't expect references like " for double-quotes. It's fixed in 4.1; it's a serious bug, and I meditate a new release in the next weeks. In the meanwhile, you can get 4.1 from here: http://imdbpy.sourceforge.net/index.php?page=download#svn The, please try this script: ==================================================== import imdb print 'IMDbPY version', imdb.VERSION i = imdb.IMDb('http') # or 'mobile' m = i.get_movie('0389564') print '%s (%s) is a "%s"' % (m['long imdb title'].encode('utf-8'), i.get_imdbURL(m), m['kind']) ==================================================== Using 4.1 (the SVN version), I get: IMDbPY version 4.1 "The 4400" (2004) (http://akas.imdb.com/title/tt0389564/) is a "tv series" -- Davide Alberani <davide.alber...@gmail.com> [PGP KeyID: 0x465BFD47] http://erlug.linux.it/~da/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Stay on top of everything new and different, both inside and around Java (TM) technology - register by April 22, and save $200 on the JavaOne (SM) conference, June 2-5, 2009, San Francisco. 300 plus technical and hands-on sessions.
