title: Filtering angular table results by value selected in dropdown menu
body: <p>Given a table of JSON data, I need to be able to filter the results based upon the movie genre the user selects from a dropdown menu. I currently have all of the genres from each movie being pulled in, but need to only have each genre available, show up once. </p>
  
  <p>Here's a sample of the JSON:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
  Rank: 1,
  Duration: "1 hr. 47 min.",
  Description: "The Friedmans are a seemingly typical, upper-middle-class Jewish family whose world is instantly transformed when the father and his youngest son are arrested and charged with shocking and horrible crimes. Caught up in hysteria and with their community in an uproar, the family undergoes a media onslaught. The film inquires not just into the life of a family but into a community, a legal system, and an era.",
