During the Norwegian filmmaker’s visit to the Criterion closet, he excitedly expounded upon his wide-ranging selections, from Paul Schrader’s Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters to the Six Moral Tales of Eric Rohmer.

United States accounts for three of their eight single films. The five box sets are what carry the reach to 28 films.
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.

Their decades
Their eight 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.
