How it works ...
This measure returns blanks when the title is filtered and the distinct count when on the total.
You can replace distint count with count depending if you wish to include or exclude film remakes with the same title.
Titles =
IF( NOT ISFILTERED(yourdata[Title]),
DISTINCTCOUNT(yourdata[Title]))
Then hide the heading for that measure, so it looks like a hanging total
