IMDB sells this information, and they do provide XML feeds, but only to paying customers. Here is a quick link:

http://www.imdb.com/Licensing/

They are a company, and scraping their information for your own uses could very well be illegal. They do have some documentation on how to properly deep link to their site.

I've used apps which utilize the "internet movie database" website to
request and parse information about movies for use in their apps. I've
successfully done this using Amazon.com and their web services but can
find absolutely nothing about the IMDB.com query mechanism (I.e. url).
does anyone know where I can find this or information about it? I don't
want to screen scrape a raw html page (which I've seen other users do) i
want an xml doc returned. If you have any ideas please send my way!
