Career shape
A full career of 93 titles from 1958 to 1997.
Counts from TMDB across their full career, self appearances out; a title counts in every role they held on it. The ring is the typical Midcredits score (the median percentile) of the role's titles that are on MovieCove, shown from 5 scored.
How do K. Narayanan's films land?
Their typical MovieCove film has a Midcredits score in the 42nd percentile, the median of all 14; across their 12 films with reception data, the typical film sits in the 51st percentile for acclaim.
- 75th and up2
- 50th to 74th3
- 25th to 49th6
- Below 25th3
Shape of the crowd
4 of their 14 titles are Cult Classics.
- Universally Panned1
- Divisive2
- Cult Classic4
- Crowd Pleaser3
- Mixed4
Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
