Hoisting Star Wars films

You've been given a nested data set on Star Wars characters (character_df) and want to explore the films in which they appeared. You'll first use the unnest_wider() and unnest_longer() functions to explore the data and will then switch to hoist() to select a specific element in the nested data structure directly.
