You've asked me about VS. You asked about

I've been writing a written test in english (in germany), and one of my so called mistakes is "you asked about the film" (which I have written), instead of "you've asked me about the film" (which my teacher prefers). As there are a lot of these "mistakes" in my test, I have tried to find examples for what I've written, but for this one I couldn't find anything out there in the Internet

It's fine to omit "me" if it's clear from the context who was asked. It is not possible to tell whether "you've asked" is preferable to "you asked" without full context.
