Toronto Critic winners

Who would have ever thought Jean Claude Van Damme's name would appear in a Critics shortlist? The Toronto film critics, oddly enough. They also picked the relatively unknown indie Wendy and Lucy as its best picture (it stars Michelle Williams). All doubt castmates are in the runner-up catagories.
