I made an alternative implementation of the Vidly project using React Hooks, and got stuck at this issue: **my button is not deleting the movie item**. I’m looking to understand what went wrong in the way I approached updating the state in my **MovieList** component. Here is the project uploaded online, it opens at the file the issue is coming from: > **[vidly - CodeSandbox](https://codesandbox.io/s/github/Josie-N/my-next-movie?file=%2Fsrc%2FMovies.js)** > > vidly using @testing-library/jest-dom, @testing-library/react, @testing-library/user-event, bootstrap, font-awesome, react, react-dom, react-scripts, web-vitals Thank you for your time! ---

If anybody is still interested, I fixed the issue! Deleting movie functionality is not working, plus the pagination.
