curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.themoviedb.org/3/authentication/session/new \
  --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{
  "request_token": "0609d2cbb31c2329a39455d843492a57f088cfd8"
}'
{
  "session_id": "3bebb91255e4341eb34bd8910da4dfbfefdb4a88",
  "success": true
}
