Returns URLs to images of a movie release along with image metadata. Note: Access to images is governed by your subscription level and geographical location.
IMPORTANT: Creator (author) credit for an image must be displayed with the image if available. For images from Getty Images, the full photographer/collection/owner credit must be displayed next to the image. If space prevents that, you may omit parts of the credit to show just Getty Images or Getty, provided the full credit is displayed at the next reasonable alternative location, even if that is on another screen, if that location exists.
