What they took

9 choices, of which three are box sets, which is why they reach 40 films.

The three box sets are what carry the reach to 40 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.

Two ways to be obscure

Every guest the two floors admit, on the two measures this site keeps of what a person reached for. Across: how many visits took the same things, averaged over their choices, a box set counting once. Up: where their single films sit in Criterion's spine numbering, which is roughly release order. Left is picks the series ignores; low is the early catalogue, and the two are not the same thing.

The two axes count different things. Across counts every choice, a box set as the one choice it was; up counts only single films that carry a spine number, which leaves out box sets and the 458 non-spine releases entirely, so a dot is here only where a guest cleared both floors.

Their choices had been taken by 10.67 visits each on average, against a median of 6.25 across the field, and their single films sit at the 54% spine percentile against 50%. So: more picked-over than most guests, and later in Criterion's numbering.

04

Their decades

Their six 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.

05

Where their films come from

Every film they reached, box sets opened, by the country Criterion credits, against the collection's own mix. Countries they never reached are not rows, so the shelf's column does not add up to everything on the shelf.

40 films · 3 countries

Criterion credits one country per film, so a co-production counts only under the country named first.

Their strongest lean is France: 31 of the 40 films they reached, 78% against 16% of the shelf.
