No surprise in guessing what yet another film publication has decided upon in its poll of the best of 2016. Maren Ade's Toni Erdmann tops Film Comment's list, which is chock full of masterpieces, many of which have also turned up on other publications' polls, and following on from Slant, is also lacking a certain Oscar-tipped musical. Nice work, folks. A second list includes Film Comment's favourite 2016 films that have as yet not received US distribution.
