The DGA nominations

The DGA announced the nominations for the 60th annual event Tuesday in Los Angeles. The guild is perhaps the most accurate indicator of which director will go on to win the Best Director Academy Award. Only six of the previous 59 nominees have not gone on to win the Oscar in the category.


The Coen brothers, who are sharing the nomination for the DGA honor, will face off against Tony Gilroy for the legal thriller "Michael Clayton," Paul Thomas Anderson for the oil boom drama "There Will Be Blood," Julian Schnabel for the drama "The Dog and the Butterfly" and Sean Penn for the adventure drama "Into the Wild."
