Yes! Use the discover_movies tool. You can provide genre IDs in with_genres and use other filters like sort_by to find highly-rated content.

02

How do I get information about a specific actor?

Use the get_person_details tool with the person's unique ID. It will return their biography, place of birth, and other metadata.
