marvel-search

We will need a web server that will answer these questions:

1. Which Marvel movies did each actor play in? tests
2. Actors who played more than one Marvel character? tests
3. BONUS – Are there 2 different actors who played the same role? tests

   in order to make the BONUS work with the suggested list of people a role/character name sanitization is necesary. To see the filter work the flag config.filter_cast_with_people is set to false by default. To use only the people in the list it can be set to true.
