How the Template Is Organized

Movies Database

The Movies database is the central place for tracking films.

Each movie entry can include:

movie title
director
watch date
rating
tags or categories
notes about the film

This allows you to track what you’ve watched and what you want to watch next.

Watch List

The Watch List view helps you keep track of movies you want to see.

Movies can be organized by priority so you always know what to watch next.

Movie Professionals

The Movie Professionals database stores people involved in films, such as:

directors
actors
writers
producers

Each professional can be connected to multiple movies.

Notes

The Notes section allows you to capture thoughts, reviews, or observations about movies you’ve watched.

Notes can be connected to individual movies for easy reference.

Customizing the Template

You can easily adapt this template to your workflow.

Common customizations include:

adding new movie genres
adding streaming platform fields
adding runtime or release year fields
creating filtered views by genre or director

Troubleshooting

I cannot duplicate the template
