How to get a specific value from a pivot table – python

How do I get a specific value from a pivot table? I need to store “imdb_score” as a int in a variable. how can I do this?

this is the the contents of the table:

                  country_id     director_id      duration      gross     id_x  id_y    imdb_score    title_year
director_name                               
Christopher Nolan     1              16          143.428571  2.494235e+08   1   16         8.6       2007.857143

Answer

set the index to the unique column you have in dataframe which you want to use to filter.

var=df.loc['Christopher Nolan','imdb_score']
