Given an IMDB movie id, how do I programmatically get its poster image?

Question

movie id tt0438097 can be found at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438097/

What\'s the url for its poster image?

Answer 1

After playing around with @Hawk's BASE64 discovery above, I found that everything after the BASE64 code is display info. If you remove everything between the last @ and .jpg it will load the image in the highest res it has.
