Moodie Movies: AI for Cinematic Discovery

An innovative approach to translate your subjective desires into relevant recommendations, developed with rigor and passion.

The Problem and Our Solution

Finding the ideal movie is often complex. Faced with vast catalogs and overly rigid filters, how can one effectively express a desired feeling or atmosphere? Traditional search engines struggle to interpret this subjective language.

Moodie Movies was born from this observation. As a developer, I wanted to create a tool that addresses a concrete need: transforming natural language into relevant recommendations. This Proof of Concept (POC) was developed with a commitment to professional quality while staying true to a vision: making AI genuinely useful in our daily lives.

AI as a tool, not a master.

Our Technical Approach

Moodie Movies' innovation lies in a semantic approach: understanding the intent and context behind words, rather than limiting itself to literal matches. Here are the main features that make this possible:

Advanced Intent Analysis

Thanks to Natural Language Processing (NLP), the application interprets your queries in context. A request like 'a comforting movie after a tough day' is analyzed to extract the emotional intent, beyond simple keywords.

Contextual Compatibility Analysis

This distinctive feature allows you to assess whether a specific movie matches your current state of mind. The system analyzes the film's themes, tone, and pace to offer you an informed recommendation that respects your free will.

In-depth Profile Analysis

Discover a detailed view of your cinematic tastes with our profile analysis tool. The system examines your interactions (favorites, likes, history) to generate a personalized report including your genre affinities, your cinematic 'persona,' and recommendations tailored to your unique journey.

Like any AI-based system, our results depend on the interpretation of finite data (synopses, genres, reviews) applied to subjective questions. We offer a significant improvement over traditional searches while acknowledging the inherent limitations of this approach.

Vision and Guiding Principles

An Iterative, Quality-Driven Approach

As a POC, Moodie Movies is constantly evolving. My development approach favors a robust and scalable architecture, allowing for regular integration of user feedback while maintaining a stable experience.

Long-Term Ambition

The goal is to transform Moodie Movies into a true companion for cinematic discovery. I am progressively developing features for explainability ('Here's why this movie is recommended to you...'), enrichment from multiple sources, and personalized thematic journeys, all while maintaining transparency as a core value.

Ethical Commitment

The development of Moodie Movies is based on clear ethical principles: transparency of recommendations, user control, and continuous vigilance regarding potential biases. I am committed to creating technology that enhances your cinematic experience without manipulation or opacity.
