The sheet
These are the films and shows with a year, the whole list, not only the hundred a crowd still names. This cut is 1,886 titles. A row under 30 is marked thin, because one title can move it.
1950s averages 55 across 104 titles. 2020s averages 47 across 378. Overall is down 8. The later row is a longer list, so it counts titles nobody would put in a hundred.
From 1950s to 2020s, the measure that moves down hardest is piety, 4.7 to 3.2. Courage falls the least: 5.8 to 5.4. Household goes 5.1 to 4.7. Piety goes 4.7 to 3.2.
A score under 45, leave it, is 24% of 1950s and 42% of 2020s. A score of 80 or above, sit with it, is 0% then and 1% in the later row.
1890s averages 31. Those are reels, often a minute long, and the list includes pictures a house should not play. Do not lay that row on a feature from 1950 and call it the same kind of fall.
A short list of titles a house still remembers will sit higher than this. That list is a memory. This sheet is the pile. Use the crowd cut when you want the hundred people actually ran.
