The DGA (Director's Guild of America) announce the winner of their coveted award on Saturday 31st January at the Hyatt Regency Central Plaza Hotel (what a name!) in Los Angeles.
The DGA has a strong track record of predicting the winner of the Best Picture Oscar, 15 of the last 20 winners matching with the Golden Bald One.
This years nominees are:
DANNY BOYLE - Slumdog Millionaire
DAVID FINCHER - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
RON HOWARD - Frost/Nixon
CHRISTOPHER NOLAN - The Dark Knight
GUS VAN SANT - Milk
Should Win - Gus Van Sant (Milk)
Classy biopic, great performances. All brought together under the steady guidance
of a director whose great body of work has been left in the shade too often by
award bodies.
Will Win - Danny Boyle (Slumdog Millionaire)
The trumpets and general fanfare started (what is beginning to feel like..)
months and months ago. Where were the academy when Trainspotting crept out
of the murky underground?
Well we'll see...
