Hi Daniel,

You put data into the movies title and genre name but these two columns don't have records, it is better to join same table.

See example below, you will find two IDs match on the end, notice "genre_id = genres.id"

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