	Metropolis (1927 movie)

		If the subject was only involved in one part of an episodic film, that part is described as a “segment,” with the term “episode” reserved for individual episodes of television series.
		If the subject was involved only in one titled episode of a television series, the title is given in quotation marks, followed by the year of original airdate in parentheses, followed by the phrase “episode of” and series title.
