Countries with exactly one film listing

Postby snallygaster on Thu Oct 28, 2010 7:32 am

Ever look at the "filter by country" feature in the film database and wonder how many of those countries have exactly one film listed? Seeking to enhance your cosmopolitanism, and willing to overlook the slightly arbitrary nature of the country assignments in the database? Wait no longer; check this collection:

Nice idea.

Now the trick will be finding a source for these rather obscure titles!

Should Macau count? Eh, if Hong Kong, Puerto Rico, Palestine Authority, etc., all count it doesn't really matter.

And you must have some insane patience to go through every country one by one.

PeaceAnarchy tipped me off that several of these countries now have multiple films in the database, so the collection's down to 11 films.
Yeah, some of Criticker's country listings probably aren't true countries in the usual sense of the word, but I figured it's best to let them stand.
And it wasn't necessary to go through every country, just the couple dozen that were possible candidates for the collection (I didn't need to check USA, France, etc.). On the other hand, it's possible some countries have had their first film entry added since I made the collection, and they'll probably remain missing from the collection unless someone notices them.
