Now let's set the image using the Movie method - Why is this wrong???

I am failing to understand why the code I have is incorrect. This seems to match what was in the video and what I've done that is working in my app as well as what I've found in examples, searching on like (that use the deprecated methods).

import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;

public class MovieActivity extends Activity {

    @InjectView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel;
    @InjectView(R.id.movieImage) ImageView mMovieImage;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
        ButterKnife.inject(this);

        // The rest of the code is omitted for brevity :)
    }

    public void updateDisplay(Movie movie) {
        // Add your code here!
      mTitleLabel.setText(movie.getTitle());
      Drawable drawable = getResource().getDrawable(movie.getImageId());
    }
}

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

MovieActivity.java
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;

public class MovieActivity extends Activity {

    @InjectView(R.id.movieTitle) TextView mTitleLabel;
    @InjectView(R.id.movieImage) ImageView mMovieImage;

    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_movie);
        ButterKnife.inject(this);

        // The rest of the code is omitted for brevity :)
    }

    public void updateDisplay(Movie movie) {
        // Add your code here!
      mTitleLabel.setText(movie.getTitle());
      Drawable drawable = getResource().getDrawable(movie.getImageId());
    }
}
Movie.java
public class Movie {
    private String mTitle;
    private int mYearReleased;
    private int mImageId;

    public int getImageId() {
        return mImageId;
    }

    public void setImageId(int id) {
        mImageId = id;
    }

    public String getTitle() {
        return mTitle;
    }

    public void setTitle(String title) { 
        mTitle = title;
    }

    public int getYearReleased() {
        return mYearReleased;
    }

    public void setYearReleased(int year) {
        mYearReleased = year;
    }
}

Try changing getResource() to getResources() :)
