Escaping chars in Python and sqlite

Question

I have a python script that reads raw movie text files into an sqlite database.

I use re.escape(title) to add escape chars into the strings to make them db safe befo

Answer 1

SQLite doesn't support backslash escape sequences. Apostrophes in string literals are indicated by doubling them: '''Allo ''Allo! (1982)'.

But, like Donal said, you should be using parameters.
