Actors and Directors
A talent agency has hired you to analyze patterns in the professional relationships of cast members and directors. The key deliverable is a network graph where each node represents a cast member or director. An edge represents a movie or TV show worked on by both nodes in this undirected graph. You can limit the actors to the first four names listed in cast.
The client is interested in any insights you can derive from your Netflix network analysis, such as actor/actor and actor/director pairs that work most closely together, the most popular actors and directors to work with, and graph differences over time.
