'Project Nim,' 'A Separation' and 'The Artist' Top Best Reviewed Indies of 2011 on Rotten Tomatoes
James Marsh's "Project Nim." Roadside Attractions/HBO Documentaries.
"50/50," the Independent Spirit Award-nominated cancer comedy starring Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Seth Rogen, won the Golden Tomato for best user-reviewed film.
Rotten Tomatoes uses a weighted formula to account for the variation in the number of reviews per movie (more here). This accounts for "A Separation" coming in second place after "Project Nim," despite having a 2% higher Rotten Tomatoes score.
Films deemed eligible for the 'Limited Release' Tomato had to play in 500 theaters or less at the time of initial release.
In the wide release category, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2" came out on top followed by "Moneyball, "The Muppets" and "Drive."
The Golden Tomatoes Awards' best reviewed films of 2011 in limited release:
1. "Project Nim"
2. "A Separation"
3. "The Artist"
4. "Poetry"
5. "The Interrupters"
6. "Everyday Sunshine: The Story of Fishbone"
7. "Le Havre"
8. "Cave of Forgotten Dreams"
9. "Bill Cunningham New York"
10. "Born To Be Wild"

only a few days and then it gets to the nominations.i saw every film in the list of 30 serious contenders and am still missing Hitler's Grave in the list.for me this movie is at the top for
best film
best directing for Shokof
best original script for Shokof
and Taies Farzan should be nominated.
i know there are may be not even 1000 people who got to see this one hell of a film,as it just does not have the millions behind it to promote the film.
however, i just had to give my vote .if it ever shows anywhere go and see it .even if it screens in Iran?!

Jack-- It was the *best reviewed* film, which has nothing to do with the box office.

Surprised to see this win as it bombed at the box office despite the initial heavy promotion from Universal.
