German Cinema vs Spanish Cinema

Row by row, the person who holds a rank in German Cinema beside the person who holds the same rank in Spanish Cinema, on the same star power score computed inside each industry. Two names on a row hold comparable standing at home. That is all it says: nothing about style or talent, and no box office across industries, where a dollar means different things.

The method, in full

How the two lists were built

The same score
Star power: the gross of the films a person led, how that run held up, how many there were, how recent, and how audiences rated them.
Computed separately
Each score is a percentile inside its own industry, so German Cinema names are scored against German Cinema and Spanish Cinema names against Spanish Cinema.
How to read a row
Because every industry is scored against itself, rank 25 in German Cinema and rank 25 in Spanish Cinema are the same fact about different places: the 25th biggest name at home. Neither number says anything about the other industry.
Who qualifies
At least 2 led films, which is what it takes for a percentile to mean anything.

Gross and rating as reported on TMDB and Wikipedia 22 German Cinema names and 12 Spanish Cinema names are ranked, so the lists run out at different lengths.
