Films of 1992
1992 was the most tense year of its era.
Across 127 well-known films, 1992 reads higher on tension than the decade around it — 56.4 against 53.2, a gap of 3.2. Every year is measured against its own era rather than against all of cinema, because a slow trend is not a year’s signature.
