The 'update' method, called with only a Movie/Person/... object as argument, will update it with a default list of 'data sets'; those depend on the type of the object. For example, look at default_info defined in the Movie class. Then you can specify, with the 'info' argument, a data set or a list of data sets to be fetched. The "all" data set name has an obvious meaning. :-) > (doing a complete parse-fetch) or just the missing/changed/different > keys from the local object? The granularity is at data set level: by default, the update method doesn't re-parse/re-fetch a data set that was already retrieved. This behavior can be modified setting the 'override' argument to True. Normally, there's no need to use it. Notice that there is no guarantee that a single data set will add a _single_ key to the object: there are (few) data sets that will add more than one key, and - obviously - if there are no info, no key will be added.
