``` ## Adding Search by Genre Add the following `MovieGenreViewModel` class to the *Models* folder: [!code-csharp[Main](../../tutorials/first-mvc-app/start-mvc/sample/MvcMovie/Models/MovieGenreViewModel.cs)] The movie-genre view model will contain: * A list of movies. * A `SelectList` containing the list of genres. This will allow the user to select a genre from the list. * `movieGenre`, which contains the selected genre. Replace the `Index` method in `MoviesController.cs` with the following code: [!code-csharp[Main](../../tutorials/first-mvc-app/start-mvc/sample/MvcMovie/Controllers/MoviesController.cs?name=snippet_SearchGenre)] The following code is a `LINQ` query that retrieves all the genres from the database. [!code-csharp[Main](../../tutorials/first-mvc-app/start-mvc/sample/MvcMovie/Controllers/MoviesController.cs?name=snippet_LINQ)] The `SelectList` of genres is created by projecting the distinct genres (we don't want our select list to have duplicate genres). ```csharp movieGenreVM.genres = new SelectList(await genreQuery.Distinct().ToListAsync()) ``` ## Adding search by genre to the Index view Update `Index.cshtml` as follows: [!code-HTML[Main](../../tutorials/first-mvc-app/start-mvc/sample/MvcMovie/Views/Movies/IndexFormGenreNoRating.cshtml?highlight=1,15,16,17,28,31,34,37,43)] Test the app by searching by genre, by movie title, and by both.
