Some deleted films not identifiable from download, only from web view #19

The download I just did from your engine included the row: https://letterboxd.com/film/film:590400/ which when uploaded to Letterboxd, had no match. I went back to the list, still open on your site, and it was identified as [Movie poster for Das Boot] [Das Boot (1987)] https://letterboxd.com/film/film:590400/) 8.36 – so presumably the TV series was briefly in Letterboxd, before being deleted by them.

As the additional identifying data was in your cache anyway, would you consider an option to include it in the download? It's not uncommon for obscure but interesting films to disappear from Letterboxd, whether because they're ‘video’, or have never had a theatrical release or festival screening.
