The other examples listed here certainly work fine but since there's more than one way to do it, here's mine. I avoid slurping the file since I prefer to read in a line at a time if I don't know how big the input is going to be. If your input file is very large then slurping could use up quite a lot of memory. Also, my solution works regardless of the number of lines of numbers following each data record.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
#print header line for output table
print "Movie\t\tShow\t\tCollection>20\n";
LINE: while(<DATA>)
{
chomp;
#find the record header
next LINE if not /Movie="(\w+)"\s+show=(\d+)/;
my ($movie,$show) = ($1,$2);
my @numbers = ();
while (($_ = <DATA>) =~ /\d+\s+\d+/)
{
chomp;
push @numbers, (split " ");
}
#filter out just the numbers >= 20
@numbers = grep {$_ >= 20} @numbers;
#add up the numbers
my $total = 0;
$total += $_ foreach @numbers;
print "$movie\t\t$show\t\t$total\n";
}
__DATA__
* Movie="ABC" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 20
* Movie="XYZ" show=4
10 20 30 14 90 30
21 13 11 10 09 23
22 05 22 15 19 10
Note that my solution produces different output than your example. You only count one occurrence of "22" on the last line but there are two. Is this by design? If so, you'd need to add a check to remove duplicate numbers (see How can I extract just the unique elements of an array? in perlfaq4).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
