Thanks Simon, this works for most cases. However, it still does not work in
some cases for example if I want Avengers:Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War to
come out if I type avengers(lower_cased). How should I rectify this?
Cheers,
Cravan

Are you saying that you want to surround the name that the user tried
to search for with wildcards? If so, how about this:
name = request.args.get("movie.title")
name_pattern = "%" + name + "%"
search_movie_statement = sqlalchemy.text('SELECT * FROM movies
WHERE title LIKE :movie_title')
movie_specific = engine.execute(search_movie_statement,
movie_title=name_pattern).fetchall()
Hope that helps,
Simon

How then do I use both of them without resulting in a conflict or error? My
