Swift: Removing duplicate objects from array with a UUID

I am using a UUID to get the use of DiffableDataSource but I am working with a data set that has a duplicate of every object.

Here is a sample of the code I am working with from a playground:

var movies: [MovieSearch] = []

struct MovieSearch: Hashable, Decodable, Equatable {
    let uuid = UUID()
    private enum CodingKeys : String, CodingKey { case Name, StartDate }
    
    let Name: String
    let StartDate: String
}
    
movies = [
  MovieSearch(Name: "Blade Runner", StartDate: "01/01/2021"), 
  MovieSearch(Name: "Blade Runner: 2049", StartDate: "01/07/2021"),     
  MovieSearch(Name: "UBIK", StartDate: "01/14/2021"),    
  MovieSearch(Name: "Blade Runner", StartDate: "01/01/2021"),    
  MovieSearch(Name: "Blade Runner: 2049", StartDate: "01/07/2021"),    
  MovieSearch(Name: "UBIK", StartDate: "01/14/2021")    
]

Since the UUID is added at the time of initialization is there a reasonable way to delete the duplicates in this scenario?

So I'm guessing what you want to do is to remove those duplicates?

Then write a function that removes the duplicates based on the name of the movie (which I'm guessing is unique) and use it to filter.

func removeDup(movies: [MovieSearch]) -> [MovieSearch] {
    var uniqueMovies = Set<String>()
    var moviesWithoutDups = [MovieSearch]()
    
    for movie in movies {
        if !uniqueMovies.contains(movie.name) {
            moviesWithoutDups.append(movie)
            uniqueMovies.insert(movie.name)
        }
    }
    return moviesWithoutDups
}

Then use the function:

movies = removeDup(movies: movies)
