Does anyone know of a website that lists ATTENDANCE, rather than GROSS RECEIPTS? Particularly concerning movies from the 30’s, 40’s & 50’s.
It really would be nice to compare Apples to Apples. After all, you could open a home movie with a total weekend attendance of 13 people in Zimbabwe and have the take be several billion! :-)
Box Office Mojo has a list that takes inflation into account.
Here it is:

It’s too early for the Dark Knight to be listed. It hasn’t made enough money, yet.
