I need someone to scrape [login to view URL] and pull two pieces of data from the site. The info I need is “Release Date” and “Lifetime Gross” for each movie name that’s in a CSV file. I have attached sample input and output CSV files to this project description to help illustrate the work I would like completed. I would like each movie name read from Column D of the CSV file, and then the corresponding Release Date and Lifetime Gross inserted in Columns P and Q. Please note that the full CSV file requiring processing has about 45k unique movie names. So the solution here must be able to scale. The sample files here are small to illustrate proper format. The following python module might be capable of being utilized: [login to view URL] If this module doesn’t work, then a solution will need to be made from scratch. Thank you for your assistance. Please include a brief description in your PM along with your bid so I can tell that you actually read the project description instead of using an auto-bidder to bid on the project. Just a sentence or two will do.
