Table 1
Tabular visualisation of the results of the quantitative analysis of the film trajectories and cinema hierarchies, with the final categorisation of cinemas in the far-right column. The percentage represents the frequency of appearance in each position of the trajectory (share of each position in the total number of screened films in each cinema). For cinemas with names in red, we do not have collected programmes for the whole year 1952.
