How It Works

1. Builds search URLs for each query on filmow.com/buscar/
2. Parses search results from div.search-result-item.movie elements (~20 per page)
3. Discovers total pages from pagination and enqueues remaining pages
4. Optionally visits each movie's detail page for rich data extraction
5. Detail pages are parsed via JSON-LD Movie schema with HTML fallback for cast, genres, duration, and country
