    Hi,
    I have been asked to write a program for one of my 1st year modules. im new to programming. Given below is the question. I have answered it partly and there are some errors and its incomplete too. it would be really great if someone could help me to complete it.

    This is the code that Iv written so far. I have no idea how to do beyond this.

    Code:
    import javax.swing.*; // import the swing library for I/O
    
    class films
    {
    public static void main (String[] param)
    {
    
    movies();
    System.exit(0);
    
    } // END main
    
    
    public static void movies()
    {
    String again = "";
    String film;
    int currentyear=2011;
    String year = "";
    String textinput1;
    int oldest year=9999;
    
    String textinput3;
    
    while (!(again.equals("QUIT")))
    {
    
    film = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Name a film");
    
    textinput1 = JOptionPane.showInputDialog
    ("What year was" +film+ "released");
    year = Integer.parseInt(textinput1);
    
    
    again = JOptionPane.showInputDialog("Name a film");
    }
    
    System.out.println("The earliest film was");
    
    if (current year < year){ // i cant seem to sort out the rest of the if statement
    
    return;
    
    
    } // END 
    
    } // END class 
    Thanks in advance
