Live Poll: Prix Goncourt Adapted to Films

Added. 

@cinephile,

I was not aware of he Prix Goncourt prize prior to your suggesting this poll. I am happy that we can make film lovers aware of interesting film related information that may not be commonly known.

I also had not heard of the Prix Goncourt prize until noticing this thread. The same goes for Kenneth Anger and his body of work. The way I see it, our dear cinephile manages to be exposed to many award-winning obscure films made at various times throughout the past several decades. I watch many obscure films too, but there maybe they are too obscure in some cases, as the overlap with other people's known movie-watching history seems to be minimal.

I'm happy if some people can discover films that they wouldn't have known. I also learn a lot by researching for these polls. It enriches my knowledge of cinema. 

On the other hand, for the amount of work that these lists necessitate, they barely get any visibility. And, the stats don't lie, by the years, my polls are less and less popular. Clearly, my polls aren't interesting to a lot of the voters anymore. I don't expect to be still in the IMDb pollmaking "business" in two years.

cinephile,

I learn a lot from your polls and appreciate the amount of effort necessary to create informative polls. Sadly, such polls generally do not receive a lot of votes.

On a side note, I do believe that lots of mainstream media outlets have a more-or-less deliberate aversion to some filmmakers, perhaps based on those filmmakers' works, or perhaps based on licensing control questions, thus keep them from gaining access to adequate distributions means. I understand, on the other hand, that perhaps there may also be people who only intend for their works of art to be viewed by enthusiastic audiences who prefer to stick with one niche genre or another. Likewise some films are probably not intended for any audience beyond a specific geographic region or a specific culture.
