Sort of. It depends on what you filter on first. Do I get the best 20 films and then pick the first one from their favourite genre (or their next favourite genre if one from their favourite genre doesn't exist) or do I pick the first one from their favourite genre? The second would be easiest but it really depends on whether a Cwoboy fan prefers sh*tty westerns or a good generic film. This is actually only a proof of concept giving mildly believable results it doesn't actually matter that much. Simon
