How the ranking works

Total combines 40% audience ratings, 30% critic ratings and 30% original award points, with a bonus for recognition by additional institutions. Scores shown to one decimal place can be tied while their unrounded ranking differs. A Critics score marked ~ is estimated from the catalogue median; its Total is provisional. Recognition years refer to ceremonies and festival editions, not necessarily release dates.
