or https://www.allmovie.com/movie/v######

where "######" indicates a number. (If it doesn't, there should be a message under the title which says "wrong Result? more matches HERE"; click on this link and reselect the desired title from the list.)
Copy only that number. Add the following text to the External links section:
* {{AllMovie title | ###### | TITLE }}

or * {{AllMovie title | id= ###### | title= TITLE }}

where ###### is the number you've copied,

and TITLE is the title of the title (default is the article's name.)
Optional: add the parameter |tab= to link to a different page (tab) in a title's entry. Choices are: overview, cast-crew, awards, and releases. Leaving the parameter empty will link to the overview.
