    Even Metacritic's very low standards for what counts as a critics' group doesn't count North Texas. Nor is it listed on Lincon's IMDB page. And it looks like it's just a dozen people I've never heard of.

    Also weird, although that is partly because of strategic voting. But the support for Amour seems so overwhelming here.

    I'm sure people wanted to share the wealth especially in Amour getting the wins it got here.

    Contrary to how I feel about it in the field of economics, I don't believe in sharing the wealth when it comes to awarding films .

    Well, not if it's for Rust and Bone. If Tabu won maybe it'd be a little bit cooler? Maybe it'd just be more satisfying because it would make more sense, like a more underseen film with big, big support, as opposed to two films that have probably been seen equally by critics giving one of them Picture, Actress and Screenplay, but the other one (that was against it in all of those categories) that spot.

    I don't mean anything by that. I just liked what you were saying.
