sqlite3.OperationalError: near "%": syntax error - Linuxdesire - Oct-12-2019

I am getting an error trying to connect to my SQLite database. I have tried several things and it is not working. I cannot figure out where the syntax error is, near self.Rating_var.get()))

#=======CONNECT TO SQLITE==========
    def add_film(self):
        conn = connect('patrick.db')
        c = conn.cursor()
        c.execute("insert into patrick values(%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,%s,%s)",(self.Title_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Actors_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Directors_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Genre_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Summary_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Year_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Length_var.get(),
                                                                          self.Rating_var.get())
                                                                          
                                                                          
        con.commit()
        con.close()

RE: sqlite3.OperationalError: near "%": syntax error - stullis - Oct-13-2019

I see a missing paren to close out c.execute. Other than that, everything looks syntactically correct.

Thank you. Yes, I added that parenthesis but still cannot figure out why it is not writing to my database when I click on add. It just gives me that error. Thank you for your help.
