your echo statement isnt going to work the way you have it. I would suggest trying something like this which doesnt require any concatenation, but uses 2 separate php statements

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; ?> (<?php echo $movie["year"]; ?>)</h1>

to get it to work the way you you have it right now, (inside one php statement) you are going to have to concatenate each parenthesis separately like so (be sure to include the space before the first parenthesis):

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"] . " (" .  $movie["year"] . ")" ;?></h1>
