Caroline and Jackie, Adam Christian Clark's critically-acclaimed first feature film, premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival before receiving a US theatrical release. Clark's second feature film, Newly Single was supported by the Sundance Institute Feature Film Program, and was honored by being only the third American movie to ever be invited into the main competition of the Tallinn Black Nights Film Festival (PÖFF). Newly Single marks Clark's first time acting in a feature film. Clark's directing career began in unscripted television. While still a student at University of Southern California School of Cinematic Arts, he was hired to direct the hit CBS television show Big Brother.

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.
