Looks like I pegged it - The Accountant won, and of course so did For The
Birds. I kinda expected The Accountant to be too flip and too anti-corporate
for the voters.
Hopefully the shorts program can come out on DVD or something so people can
check out this stuff. I was also surprised to find that No Man's Land beat
out Amelie - not that it's not a deserving film.
Oh yes, and John Cameron-Mitchell was robbed. Hedwig now!
