Finding influential films
posted by D_D_SearchingSTAFFMOD on July 19, 2018 at 6:09 AM
Hi, I'm looking for a section of the site that will show me the influences of a chosen film on others, and visa versa. If anyone can help that's most appreciated.

Hi @D_D_Searching,
Can you clarify by what you mean by "influences of a chosen film on others"?

Hi, as an example, if I want to see which films influenced Scorcese when he made Taxi Driver; thematically, or stylistically- camera movement; shots mirrored from other films etc.

Understood. TMDb doesn't have any data like that and I am not sure of anyone (other than say maybe Wikipedia?) who would.
