Films of 2003
2003 was the least cerebral year of its era.
Across 241 well-known films, 2003 reads lower on cerebral than the decade around it — 43.9 against 45.4, a gap of 1.5. Every year is measured against its own era rather than against all of cinema, because a slow trend is not a year’s signature.
