I remove it and type in "The straight story", and hit search. It went on to give me matches for a "A fish called Wanda". I repeated this several times, and reloaded the page. Sorry, but your service does not work. I'm using Chrome on OS X.

You have to wait for it to autocomplete the title and then click on one of the completions.

this is a terrible ui decision. I'm typing in names, and pressing match, then godfather continously comes up. *star wars isn't even in the drop down, when i type star wars.
