True Box Office Gold

TRUE BOX OFFICE GOLD In 1930 some 65% of the American population went to the cinema weekly. By 1964 that number had fallen to 10% (when there were 1.04bn tickets sold). It has remained pretty much steady ever since, which may explain why the top 30 grossing movies in America, even when adjusted for inflation*, are oldies.
