Edit for readability:

Lower ranking is better, as in "rank 1" would be the best movie rated by that group.

The top section shows movies highly ranked by women, but lower for men. The bottom section is the reverse.

All things being equal, two of the movies in the men's list are in the top 100 for men. It's not so much that men like old movies but of the old movies that men rank in the hundreds, women don't like those.

Who knows what men and women's "number one" movie is and what the Delta is there.

If someone asked you to name your top 100 ~ 150 movies but not the top 100, you'd be confused and just throw some shit up there that you vaguely recall looking. Like, I'd probably be scraping the bottom of the barrel by the time I got to sixty, let alone one hundred. This chart by no means represents a longing for male dominated classic cinema - just that men recall liking things that are regarded as classic. This chart just says that men don't like The Blindside and they're right for that.
