Thank you. That's precisely what I was looking for.

Maybe one day google will be so advanced that you can pose it a question
like the one I made in my original post, and it will be intelligent enough
to give you the correct results...
(And yes, I tried with everything I could think of before asking here. This
is really a case that basically no search keyword helps...)

Yeah. But I think that day is still some way away.

Not really - the search keyword "Vidocq" /would/ have helped...

That's not a search keyword. That's the answer.

It's like an NP decision problem; the solution can be easily verified,
but not easily computed.
(Except that it's not a decision problem. And we've not talking about
computation, we're talking about Google searches. And that this is a
horrible analogy...)

Maybe deep down at the core of the problem it /is/ an NP decision problem?

Not really. If the input is all the movie covers in existence, then a
linear search would be enough to find the described one.

I guess it's more complex than that: You don't want /the/ match (because
your question is too fuzzy for an exact one), but the /best/ one.
The metric for the quality of the match would have to include contextual
analysis; and this analysis needs to be more fine-grained the more
candidates you have.
