When user searchs for a movie like "Run (2013)" they expect the exact movie to be first in the results, but:
primary_release_year
parameter, the desired movie is the 3rd result: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=1234&language=en-US&query=run&page=1&include_adult=false&primary_release_year=2013
year
parameter, the desired movie is the 5th result: https://api.themoviedb.org/3/search/movie?api_key=1234&language=en-US&query=run&page=1&include_adult=false&year=2013
Is it possible to fix on the server side?

There is this ticket for WEB. It will likely be extended to API.

I just wanted to add that this ticket could be more relevant. Both will be getting done at the same, so I suppose it doesn't really matter but I just wanted to make sure to connect the cards here.
