    This is actually a FANTASTIC list of winners... if this could bring even just a shred of attention to Safety Not Guaranteed for awards season that would be amazing! Such a beautiful and under appreciated movie.

    Get out, I know Jon Vickers! A great guy who's done so much for film culture in the Indiana-Michigan region. Any award given to him is well-deserved.

    I checked their site. They have 10 members. I dunno how many were available for voting though.

      Ed Johnson-Ott I'm a member of the IFJA and everyone voted. "Safety Not Guaranteed" won handily, by the way.

      Joe7827 You Indianans are my heroes! (And your runner-up choice isn't a bad film either.) Now if only Jake Johnson could've gotten in there.

    If the award was "Really good film you should watch", maybe. But come on...

    Best Foreign Film: "The Raid: Redemption". YOU KIDDING ME???? Over "Amour", "Holy Motors", and other dozens of great foreign films this year?

    Meh- Any group that has Silver Linings trumping Lincoln in all those categories is suspect to me.
