Freebase returns null results for MQL query for topic description

Question

I am trying to use the free google API base. I am looking for a movie description using the following query:

[{ "id": "/m/027pfg", "name": null, "/common/topic/description": [] }] 

which lead to:

 { "result": [{ "id": "/m/027pfg", "name": "Big Fish", "/common/topic/description": [] }] } 

URL:

http://www.freebase.com/query?autorun=1&q=%5B%7B%22id%22:%22/m/027pfg%22,%22name%22:null,%22/common/ topic / description

but on the page itself: " http://www.freebase.com/m/027pfg " I see a description of the movie. this happens a lot and I cannot get the information I need.

The MQL API does not return entity descriptions. To get descriptions, you need to use either the search API or the theme API .

Search API:

 https://www.googleapis.com/freebase/v1/search?query=/m/027pfg&output=(description) 

API Theme:

 https://www.googleapis.com/freebase/v1/topic/m/027pfg?filter=/common/topic
