Hi Rasbin,

It's assuming that 'movies' is the table, and thus it would be:

SELECT * FROM movies WHERE year=2003;

Admittedly, it's not worded very well to arrive at that conclusion. I also was thinking on a first reading that movies was referring to a column name, not a table name.

Hi Rasbin,

You want to select all movies from the year 2003.

The * operator is short for everything in a table.

So

SELECT * FROM insert_table_name_here WHERE year = 2003;

Would give you the correct result :)

Good luck!
