How to Find Films for a Specific Audience with ChatGPT
Use ChatGPT and ToolRouter to find films suited to a specific audience from a known favorite.
Tool
ChatGPT works well when the audience recommendation needs to be turned into a shareable list with notes about why each film suits the group. Run `find_similar`, then ask ChatGPT to annotate each pick.

- Share the annotated list with the group or use it to plan the next movie night.
Example Prompt
Try this with ChatGPT using the Similar Movies tool
Use similar-movies to find films similar to The Princess Bride with a minimum vote average of 6.5. Annotate each result with a note on why it is appropriate for a family with young children.
Tips
- Audience notes help the group decide quickly without needing to look up each film.
- Use a modest quality floor to keep both well-known and slightly obscure picks.
- Ask ChatGPT to remove any picks that do not match the audience after it annotates.
