+# Local Movie Database
+
+A clean, fast, and fully offline web application to browse and search your personal movie database (built from TMDB data).
+
+The app displays movies in a beautiful card-based interface with posters, ratings, release years, full language names, and descriptions. Everything runs locally on your machine.
+
+---
+
+## Features
+
+* Beautiful movie cards with TMDB posters
+* Search by title or keyword
+* Filter by:
+
+  * Genre (multi-select)
+  * Language (shows full names like "English", "Japanese", "Greek", etc.)
+  * Minimum rating
+  * Minimum vote count
+  * Year range
+* "Load More" button — loads 100 movies at a time
+* No artificial result limit — you can keep loading until all matching results are shown
+* Fully responsive 4-column layout
+* Completely local (no data sent online)
+
+---
+
+## Requirements
+
+* Python 3.10 or higher
+* `streamlit`
+* `pandas`
+* A prepared SQLite database file named `movies.db` (≈1.4 million movies)
+
+---
+
+## Installation
+
+### 1. Clone the repository
+
+```
+git clone <your-repo-url>
+cd movie-project
+```
+
+### 2. Install dependencies
+
+```
+pip install streamlit pandas
+```
+
+Or using the requirements file:
+
+```
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+### 3. Add your database
+
+Place your `movies.db` file in the root folder (same directory as `movie_app.py`).
+
+**Important:** The database must contain a table named `movies` with at least these columns:
+
+* `title`
+* `release_date`
+* `vote_average`
+* `vote_count`
+* `overview`
+* `original_language`
+* `poster_path`
+* `genres`
+* `popularity`
+
+### 4. Run the app
+
+```
+streamlit run movie_app.py
+```
+
+The application will automatically open in your default web browser.

+
+## Notes
+
+* The first search may take a few seconds while the genre list is built.
+* Movie posters are loaded from TMDB’s public image server: [https://image.tmdb.org](https://image.tmdb.org)
+* You can keep clicking "Load More" until all matching results are displayed.
+* Best performance when the database has been cleaned (adult content removed).
