You can never go wrong to catch a movie rated A, A+, A-, or B+ on Yahoo Movies. When viewing a movie's page, it's a pitty I can't see the actor's photo directly on that page (in Cast & Credits section). So I wrote this to allow me to pop up the actor's photo by simply hovering over the actor's hyperlink.
This works on pages with hyperlink format like http://movies.yahoo.com/movie/1809834191/info
Tehnical note: This code's mashup framework can be re-used to make an ajax like request to any web page and pull its content in, in a manner that makes its DOM crawlable from the page you started from. The trick is to append the outside file to the current file within a hidden div. The new concatened file needs to be referred to via a new document variable.
