Not a whole lot to say about this year's winner, which debuted in January—our first Sundance champ since Grizzly Man (and only our second overall, versus a whopping 13/22 winners to date that premiered at Cannes)—and remained the film to beat pretty much until the final bell. I briefly had some hope for Toni Erdmann, given its rapturous initial reception (and my own belief that it's the year's finest), but it proved to be somewhat divisive among the AVB; the Sallittists, in particular, were unimpressed, with one of them not even bothering to see it until post-deadline (and then filing the expected "meh"). In the end, Paterson wound up edging past Ade's film for second place, by a 2-point margin, and Jarmusch unexpectedly (at least to me) was voted Best Director, with Lonergan finishing way down in 7th...which is exactly where Herzog placed for Grizzly Man in 2005. Hmm.
Most of the acting categories were equally predictable—although Huppert, who I'd assumed to be a total lock*, in fact had very serious competition. Indeed, she was in 4th place for much of the balloting, only pulling ahead of Braga, Hüller and Hall in the final hours. Still, she finished with a healthy 28-point margin, whereas last year a mere three points separated winner Rooney Mara and runner-up Nina Hoss. Affleck and Gladstone, by contrast, both won by 100+ landslides, and I never imagined any other result in either case. Supporting Actor was the only race in which the outcome seemed to me uncertain, mostly because of possible vote-splitting among Moonlight's male cast. (Mahershala Ali won the lion's share of the critics' awards, but the film's tripartite structure led most Skandie voters to place every actor in Supporting, since they were all absent from two out of three sections. Ali placed 4th, Trevante Rhodes 10th, and André Holland 12th.) In hindsight, I should have realized that the winner would almost surely be one of two bumbling comic performances, both of which I voted for myself. That's Ed, Glen Powell, who created the ultimate '70s-into-'80s charming meathead for Richard Linklater, in a film virtually everyone saw, yet wound up in a distant 9th place, wuz robbed.
* Confession: Not only am I one of the few people who didn't vote for Huppert in any of her three films this year, I'm not sure that I've ever voted for her, in anything. Maybe 8 Women or I ♥ Huckabees. (I don't have individual ballots from prior to 2006, when Mark Pittillo created the online version.) She's a reliably fine actor, but she rarely surprises me; her performance in Elle is exactly what I'd expect from her, given the film's basic premise. A little too much sangfroid, perhaps.
Okay, on to the number-crunching. (Many of you will want to check out at this point.) What follows are the stats I used to send out to voters (via snail mail!) back in the '90s, which I still maintain for my own obsessive amusement.
HIGHEST AVERAGE RATING (1996–2016)
(includes only films receiving a minimum of ten votes)
01. 3.65 The Sweet Hereafter (1997)
02. 3.61 Being John Malkovich (1999)
02. 3.61 A Separation (2011)
04. 3.58 Paradise Lost: The Child Murders at Robin Hood Hills (1996)
05. 3.57 In the Company of Men (1997)
06. 3.56 Secrets & Lies (1996)
07. 3.53 La Promesse (1997)
08. 3.52 Yi Yi (A One and a Two…) (2000)
09. 3.50 From the Journals of Jean Seberg (1996)
10. 3.49 Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)
It's nearly impossible for new films to make this list, due to a significant uptick in voter stinginess with high ratings since the '90s. This year's highest-rated film, O.J.: Made in America, is a fair distance away (3.41).
LOWEST AVERAGE RATING (1996–2016)
(includes only films receiving a minimum of five votes)
01. 0.20 Date Movie (2006)
01. 0.20 America (2014)
03. 0.50 Collateral Beauty (2016)
04. 0.58 Miss March (2009)
05. 0.60 Dragonfly (2002)
06. 0.61 The Roommate (2011)
07. 0.67 3000 Miles to Graceland (2001)
07. 0.67 The Human Centipede III (Final Sequence) (2015)
09. 0.70 Beastly (2011)
09. 0.70 Left Behind (2014)
Collateral Beauty finally knocks out The Mod Squad, which had hung around for 17 years.
MOST DIVISIVE FILMS (2016)
(std. deviation >= 0.75; minimum 2 votes 3.5 or higher, 2 votes 1.5 or lower)
The Jungle Book (0.79)
Mountains May Depart (0.79)
Krisha (0.78)
Very few films qualified this year, for some reason. Silence has a very high deviation (0.92), but that's due to a single zero-star vote from noted Scorsese hater Dan Sallitt. Same with Tower (0.86): one zero from Josh Rothkopf, no other haters. Same with Zootopia (0.75), somehow—not sure how anyone finds that film completely worthless (and I say that as someone who wasn't a big fan), but whatever. Knight of Cups, which I'd expected to see here, just missed the cutoff with 0.71.

1996: Dead Man (2.94)

2014: Goodbye to Language (2.64)
2015: The Assassin (2.73)
2016: Knight of Cups (2.52)
I've been waiting 20 years for a film to beat Crash's record for the lowest average ever—that's Cronenberg's Crash, not Haggis'—and it still hasn't happened. But Knight of Cups does tie it.
DAMNED WITH FAINT PRAISE

2015: The Look of Silence (3.28)
2016: I Am Not Your Negro (3.18)
Increasingly, this "honor" goes to a documentary—five times out of the last six years. The highest-rated fiction film that missed was Love & Friendship (3.15), with Hell or High Water and Aquarius (both 3.13) right behind.

There were some real dogs from the Cannes and Venice competition slates this year—The Sea of Trees (1.79), Chronic (1.75), 11 Minutes (1.67)—but NYFF wisely passed on all of them.

Scorsese moves into 4th, knocking out Wes Anderson, and Linklater creeps up on the Coens, who had a rare whiff this year.
And finally. Back when I started the survey, I remember looking forward to the time, a decade or so later (i.e. now), when there'd be tons of accumulated data to wade through. In particular, I was excited about the prospect of being able to compare how various films from major directors had been received over the years. Granted, that process isn't exactly definitive—the AVB has mutated over the years and even the diehards tend to be stingier with their star ratings than they were back in the mid-'90s. But perhaps my favorite task after receiving the averages is updating my Directors' Gallery, plugging this year's films into various post-'94 oeuvres. Here are the entries that saw additions this year—every filmmaker who's ever placed in the Director top 20. 2016 films are in bold. Numbers in parentheses indicate how the film placed in Best Picture that year, if applicable; if the film title is in parentheses that means it received fewer than 10 votes and hence the result is a bit less meaningful. N/A (not applicable) means it was eligible but didn't even get five votes and so didn't make the main list.
