Yes you're right, I also think that some of the questions aren't well-phrased... they had to mention that you need to retrieve only the movies with genre assigned to them.

There's might be an error in the system, I wrote the following statement several times but it always returns an error:

'''SELECT movies.title, genres.name FROM movies INNER JOIN genres ON movies.genre_id = genres.id;'''

Is there anyone can help to solved it.

Thanks Pietro
