Yeah, the search isn't all that stable yet, ViMM currently copies the movie list into a 'search list', if this action is triggered while the movie list has only one item because of a pre-existing search, then ViMM get's confused and forgets all the items that aren't included in the search action.
One way to prevent all entries being deleted is to do your search action, select the item you want in the list, then pressing the cross to reset the search before doing any other actions.
When you reset the search field, you'll keep the selection, so you should be able to do whatever you want with it afterwards.
Not as useful as the search field, but you can also select an item in the list, then start typing the first few letters of a title to be selected.
I'll make sure to change this behaviour in the future.
