- The 60th Annual DGA Awards have announced those who will be the honored guests at the upcoming dinner distinguishing outstanding directorial achievement in what was a splendid year of eye candy. Notably absent from this year's 5-list is of course David Fincher and his film Zodiac and Joe Wright for Atonement, but for the most part the nominees are a very much deserving pack. The winner will be announced January 26th - an interesting stat: only six times since the DGA Awards began in 1949 has the winner not gone on to win an Academy Award.Prez Michael Apted (from the 7-up films) had this to say about the cream of the cream..."2008 marks the 60th Anniversary of the DGA Awards," said Apted. "We are very proud to have today's five nominees join the illustrious list of directors that have been nominated for directorial excellence in feature filmmaking over the past 59 years.
