SYNOPSIS

Quick summary of what the module does.

                              'listsDir' =>  "./imdb-data/lists",
                              'showProgressBar' => 1);

    for my $type ( $foo->listTypes() ) {
        if ( $foo->importList($type) != 0 ) {
           warn("$type import failed, check $foo->{imdbDir}/stage-$type.log");
        }
    }
    ...
