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.

    I suspect part of this is that your classic “film buff” is probably significantly overrepresented here, and that that demographic skews male.

    That would certainly explain a lot about the two lists. The women’s list is much more modern and mainstream popular movies, while the men’s list has a lot of classics that I think it’s fair to say the average person today is far less likely to have seen. The type of person who watches a lot of old classic and foreign movies is probably likely to be the same kind of person who has a lower than average opinion of most mainstream movies coming out today.
