Films of 1976
1976 was the most intimate year of its era.
Across 58 well-known films, 1976 reads higher on intimacy than the decade around it — 51.7 against 48.3, a gap of 3.4. Every year is measured against its own era rather than against all of cinema, because a slow trend is not a year’s signature.
