If you go by ticket sales, the most popular film of all time is Gone With the Wind. "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn." That is adjusting for , by the way. But a movie's take at the box office is influenced by ad budgets, distribution, reviews - so box office may not be the best of a movie's cultural influence. To address that question, researchers gave movies the big data treatment - by analyzing the complex network of among 47,000 movies on the Internet Movie Database, IMDb. The popular movie site tracks every time a film has been or spoofed, featured or remade: all factors that indicate a movie's influence on subsequent films. And by analyzing those connections with a of algorithms - including Google's PageRank algorithm - the data scientists came up with a new number one: it's another 1939 flick by the same directors as Gone With the Wind, which has been more than 300 times, and referenced by nearly 3,000 movies.
