The Movie Place! application uses an API to extract movie data using URL requests and displays the relevant retrieved data from the API on to the GUI.

The OMDb API is a RESTful web service to obtain movie information. By default all OMDb API responses are formatted as JSON. However, OMDb API also supports responses formatted as XML.

• tkinter - to design the GUI
• pillow (PIL) - to make images compatible with tk GUI
• io - to encode and use images from URL
• requests - to request and read data from the API response
• urllib - to request and read data from the API response
• socket - to configure connections
• json - to load and retrieve required fields from the API response

The first window that shows up is where you enter the name of the movie whose info you want to display on the GUI.

Suppose I enter avatar in the entry field,

If the movie is found, the response is sent and the GUI looks like this,

If the entered movie is not found, it is notified in the GUI using a validation message,

Also, at times there might be some issues connecting to the API service, in that case you get a message to resumbit, where you just need to click the SUBMIT button again
