The North Texas Film Critics Association made some... choices in their 2021 award nominations, such as shutting out The Power of the Dog entirely, so it stands to reason their tastes for award winners might be equally idiosyncratic. And indeed they are, as The Green Knight bags a Best Picture prize despite winning nothing else, and The French Dispatch pulls off three acting wins - more prizes total than any other from the NTFCA this year, without even contending for either Picture or Director. At least you can't accuse this lot of going with the crowd! All the info below.
