Track Hollywood Stars' Career Trajectory

A neat article in Slate which uses Rotten Tomatoes data to chart the career trajectory of Hollywood actors and directors.  It's interesting that actors on average have the same average Tomato-rating throughout their careers, and I would've expected the survivorship bias of directors to also show up among actors.

Another interesting things about the article was it named some high scoring movies on the Tomato meter.  Maybe I'll have to check some of them out...

Jean De Florette / Manon of the Spring

The Sweet Hereafter

Secrets and Lies

Another Year
