The line chart illustrates the percentages of British residents classified into four age groups, who attended movie theaters over a twelve-year span between 2000 and 2011.
Overall, the rates of cinema attendance experienced an upward trend throughout the period, irrespective of age groups. In addition, individuals between 15 and 24 years of age had the highest percentage, whereas those aged 35 years or older contributed the least to visiting the cinema.
In 2000, approximately 17% British citizens of 15-24 years of age went to watch films, which was the highest among other categories. Moreover, the rate then skyrocketed and reached over 55% in 2011, before showing some fluctuation in the middle years. On the contrary, the proportion of the British people whose age were 35 and over was negligible till 2002, after which it showed a gradual increase and reached over one-tenth in the last year.
Meanwhile, the percentages of the other two age groups experienced a similar trend of rise and fall during the period, when the cinema visitors from the youngest age group rose from 10% in 2000 to 30% in 2011. Besides, the rate of the 25-35 age group almost tripled throughout the years, reaching from about 8% to around 24%.
