Right on the heels of the Producer’s Guild of America nominees for Best Picture comes the nominees for Best Director by the DGA (Director’s Guild of America). Those nominated for outstanding achievements are...

Outstanding Achievement in Directing
Clint Eastwood (Million Dollar Baby)
Marc Forster (Finding Neverland)
Taylor Hackford (Ray)
Alexander Payne (Sideways)
Martin Scorsese (The Aviator)


The DGA nominations are pretty much identical to the Producer’s Guild Nominees, with the exception of The Incredibles. As expected, Brad Bird’s foray into CGI animation will most likely be tossed aside by other award groups, making room for one of several other films - in this case Ray.

The DGA winner will be announced on January 29th.
