Echo from an array code not passing challenge. ?

I don't know what I'm doing wrong here. I believe the echo statement is correct. I've set up an movie array with one movie. I've tried to echo it but the challenge won't let me continue.

Thanks for any help. P

index.php 
<?php
$movie = [];
$movie["title"] = "The Empire Strikes Back";
?>
<?php
echo "<h1>" . $movie["title"] . "(1985)</h1>"
?>

<table>
  <tr>
    <th>Director</th>
    <td>Robert Zemeckis</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Rating</th>
    <td>8.5</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <th>IMDB Ranking</th>
    <td>53</td>
  </tr>
</table>

I added the semi colon ";" to the end of line 6 (the echo line and no luck).

The problem is that the challenge wants the opening and closing php tags to be inside the H1 tag itself, instead of echoing out the H1 tag, like this:

<h1><?php echo $movie["title"]; ?>(1985)</h1>
