The line graph illustrates the percentage of people visiting the cinema once a month or more between 1984 and 2003, categorized into four age groups: 7-14, 15-24, 25-35, and 35 and over.
Overall, the 15-24 age group consistently had the highest percentage of cinema-goers, while the 35 and over age group had the lowest and most stable attendance rate. The other two age groups, 7-14 and 25-35, showed fluctuating trends.
In 1984, approximately 15% of the 15-24 age group visited the cinema regularly. This percentage increased significantly, peaking at around 50% in 1997 and 2002. The 7-14 age group started at around 10% in 1984 and experienced a rise to nearly 40% by 2000, showing a similar upward trend. The 25-35 age group, on the other hand, began with about 5% in 1984, peaked at just over 30% in 1997, and then showed a slight decline.
The 35 and over age group had the lowest and most stable attendance rate throughout the period. Starting at approximately 3% in 1984, the percentage gradually increased to around 10% by 2000, maintaining a relatively steady trend.
In summary, younger age groups, particularly the 15-24 age group, exhibited a higher and more variable rate of cinema attendance compared to older age groups. This indicates that younger people were more likely to visit the cinema frequently over the years, while older individuals maintained a lower and more consistent rate of attendance.
