The DGA nominees are....
The competition for the Directing nominations for the Oscars have blown WIDE open people! The DGA Nominees just came out today, and let me tell you, all signs are pointing YES for Martin Scorcese. Before I go further into it, let me tell you the nominees.....
Bill Condon (Dreamgirls)
Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris (Little Miss Sunshine!)
Stephen Frears (The Queen)
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu (Babel)
Martin Scorcese (The Departed)
Let me explain why this is my dream nomiation list. Not only did each one of these Directors do an amazing job on all of these films, but Clint Eastwood didn't even make the cut. I.E. Mr. Double Golden Globe nominee. I love Clint, but let's be honest, he was the only thing standing in the way between Marty and his Oscar. Now, it's lookin' good for MS!
Bill Condon got the nomination, which everyone expected. Stephen Frears did too, which I'm very happy for. Alejandro, Thank GOD, got the nomination, which he totally deserves. But the Directing duo, Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris got a completely deserving nomination for one of the best films of the year. Granted, Clint will probably get the nomination come Oscar time, but in the meantime, I can always dream, right?
