Summary

Released in 1984, Yellow Earth is a drama, history and music film.

Only 16 of its IMDb reviewers are calibrated, so the calibrated figure rests on a thin sample; a broader pool of 16 reviewers with at least two reviews feeds the raw-average track. Its in-cohort standing is measured against the other 3,140 1980s films, not against the whole corpus.
