only if your input evaluates to 'n' or to 'N'.
You have to declare it like this:
if movie == 'n' or movie == 'N':
sys.exit()
The way you currently defined your condition, the interpreter will read it as follows
if movie == 'n' or 'N' == TRUE:
sys.exit()
This will always evaluate to TRUE.
When you are using boolean operators and are comparing values, you have to make that comparison on both sides of the operator.
