What is the relationship between a table of Movies and a table of ActorsActresses and how might it be implemented in a relational database?
Given that one movie can have many actors or actresses and one actor or actress can star in many movies, the two entities have a many-to-many relationship. To implement this data in a relational database a third table, a junction table, would have to be established that was on the “many” side of a one-to-many relationship to both the Movies and ActorActresses tables. The junction table might be called Castings.
Implement many-to-many relationship with junction table "Castings" linking Movies and ActorActresses tables.
