Nathaniel's ballot
Statistics do not include documentaries or short films. Curiously only Cuaron and McQueen have been winning critics prizes*. While it's not atypical for there to be much agreement between critics organizations these days, usually you have more than 2 names honored. Perhaps it was their dominance that shut Paul Greengrass out and allowed three directors with intense fanbases in the Academy to stick the landing?
*no, NBR is not a critics prize
