The Process: I collated all results that were sent in. Films that earned ratings from at least 40% of all respondents qualified to make the final listings. 16 films met that threshold. I added all ratings of a film together and then divided that by the number of ratings it received to arrive at the average rating on a 1-5 scale.
AND SO, HERE ARE YOUR RESULTS FOR THE PEOPLE'S TELLURIDE FOR 2023
1) Poor Things (4.51)
2) Anatomy of a Fall (4.24)
3) The Zone of Interest (4.19)
4) The Holdovers (4.17)
5) Perfect Days (4.16)
6) All of Us Strangers (4.14)
7) Rustin (4.00)
8) Daddio (3.99)
9) Nyad (3.95)
10) The Bikeriders (3.86)
11) Saltburn (3.68)
12) Fingernails (3.46)
13) Janet Planet (3.45)
14) The Royal Hotel (3.36)
15) Tuesday (2.98)
16) Wildcat (2.62)
Seven films earned a 4.00 average or better making 2023 the best year for that statistic since 2013 which had nine (2015 also had seven films rated 4.00 or better).
Poor Things was the most viewed film among respondents to the poll this year with 93% of them having viewed it. Saltburn was next at 88%. The Holdovers was third at 75%. The Bikeriders was fourth with 73% and for fifth there was a three way tie between All of Us Strangers, Rustin and The Zone of Interest at 70%.
After the completion of this year's People's Telluride Poor Things moves onto the all time top ten films with it 4.51 rating at #8 tied with The Two Popes.

CHANGES COMING TO YOUR FAVORITE GONDOLA
News from The Telluride Daily Planet: It appears a new gondola may be on the way to T-ride. From the story that appeared in the digital version of The Daily Planet on Thursday, Sept. 14th:
"San Miguel County is poised to move forward with a draft intergovernmental agreement for planning the replacement of the current gondola with a new gondola system."
The bare bones of a timeline were also mentioned on the post:
"Wednesday’s work session was a discussion “about a proposed intergovernmental agreement for the planning operations that will be occurring for the next two years to get us to a potential ballot measure and/or other grant opportunities” for the “the ultimate replacement of the gondola as well as continued operations of the gondola post-2027.”
