Some difference from those listed on this page. What is the source? Mintguy


Change it. As said on the other page, I used U.S. lists because I couldn't find a good worldwide list for specific years. Drop the movies that shouldn't be there down to "other films" and add this list as the top grossing films. If you don't want to, I'll do it when I have the time -Jazz77

Well as you can see from the above list, the worldwide receipts arn't included, so if your list is US Box office is should concur. As it stands either could be right or wrong, what is your source? It might be more authoritative. Mintguy

Oh, I see.. didn't notice that the list above was incomplete. I think I used IMDB for a lot of my lists, but I got some from other sites as well. -Jazz77

Right. Top grossing movies for 1946 not listed on IMDB. So with your permission I'll use this list. Mintguy
Actually, my link went to the wrong place... Here's 1946 on IMDB. -Jazz77

That's weird the page for 1946 (and some other years I looked at) doesn't contain a link to the top grossing films of that year even though that page does exist. Mintguy

Also (and more annoyingly) looking at box office for song of the south on IMDB lists it as doing 29.228m business, which is higher than the top film listed for that year on IMDB (Notorious), but the figure is different from http://www.worldwideboxoffice.com. Mintguy
