Rankle #42 answer: film release date (oldest to newest)
Daily puzzle for Thursday 16 July 2026
The answer
Rank by film release date (oldest to newest)
- 1Gone with the Wind1939
- 2The Godfather1972
- 3Jaws1975
- 4Inception2010
Why this order
Ranked oldest to newest, Gone with the Wind (1939) goes at the top and Inception (2010) at the bottom.
The closest call is The Godfather (1972) against Jaws (1975), 3 years apart. That is the swap most likely to cost a point.
The biggest gap is between Jaws and Inception, 35 years apart, so that boundary should be the easiest part of the order to get right.
