Answer 1

You have to use cin.getline():

char input[100];
cin.getline(input,sizeof(input));

Answer 2

You want to use the .getline function in cin.

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main () {
  char name[256], title[256];

  cout << "Enter your name: ";
  cin.getline (name,256);

  cout << "Enter your favourite movie: ";
  cin.getline (title,256);

  cout << name << "'s favourite movie is " << title;

  return 0;
}
