Hello! Anyone can help me with this challenge? I can't find the error. Thank you

Can someone tell me where the mistake is? Here is the challenge task: Use input() to ask the user if they want to start the movie. If they answer anything other than "n" or "N", print "Enjoy the show!". Otherwise, call sys.exit(). You'll need to import the sys library.

firedoor.py 
import sys
while True:
    respuesta = input("Do you want to start the movie? (y/n): ".lower())
    if respuesta != "n":
        print("Enjoy the show!")
    else:
        sys.exit()

there should be no bracket around lower.

i.e. it should read: 

respuesta = input("Do you want to start the movie? (y/n): ").lower()

You need to break out of the while loop... add the break to exit the loop if the user types anything other than "n" or "N"
