Hey Davide,
No worries, I was just curious after looking at the http parser. Been
trying to think of a way around this for a minute.
Was hoping to have an invalid movie ID return an exception that my
try/except statement will recognize like a null value, however, the
incorrect id (say, get_movie(‘0’) returns the long 404 error and exits the
program.
thanks for your help,
-Anthony
