Their four single films come from four different countries, with no one of them leading. The two box sets are what carry the reach to 50 films.

02

Closest taste

Jaccard overlap against every other visit, counted on what came off the shelf rather than on films, so a shared box set counts once rather than as the films inside it.

403 visits compared · 31 filmed-together pairs excluded

03

Their decades

Their four single films with a release year on record, against where every guest's single-film picks land. Box sets are left out of both sides, so the two bars measure the same thing.
