Years: 1939–1941 gained the most points (that was not a surprise when #14 of the era was #34 in the final). The dominance can be seen even better when comparing sum of ranks (#1 = 1 points, #197= 197 points). Less points the better (minimum would be 120 points = 1 + 2 + 3 + …. + 14 + 15) 1939–1941 h...

Some stats: Last time we had 149 movies in the final. This time 197. A Birth of Nation dropped 48 positions from #149 to #197 but practically it kept its rank (the last one).
