Films of 2018
2018 was the most paranoid year of its era.
Across 578 well-known films, 2018 reads higher on paranoia than the decade around it — 41.3 against 38.6, a gap of 2.7. Every year is measured against its own era rather than against all of cinema, because a slow trend is not a year’s signature.
