title: How do I clean and split up the following string?
body: <p>I have a column in my database which stores string in the following format:</p>
  
  <pre><code>"['Action', 'Adventure', 'Comedy']"
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>How do I extract the movie genres so I can use them seperately, after extraction I should have the following:</p>
  
  <pre><code>g1 = 'Action'  
  g2 = 'Adventure'  
  g3 = 'Comedy'
  </code></pre>
