Wooops!  Never noticed. :-/

An _obscene_ work-around is in place in the SVN repository [1]; I can't
call it a fix because at the moment I don't understand what caused
the problem (and the work-around makes it even worst...)
I suppose a lot of nested tags make BeautifulSoup confused.

That can be a serious issue - can you provide me a simple
test to reproduce the problem?  Does it manifest itself
only with get_top250_movies or even in other circumstances?

Thank you very much for the bug report - I've added your name
to the credits.
