This year, I'm rooting for Martin Scorsese and his masterful biopic film of Howard Hughes, The Aviator. I'm not embarrassed to admit that I anticipated Scorsese would win all major directing and best picture awards.
Guess what? The Director's Guild awarded Clint Eastwood the best director award tonight for his boxing film Million Dollar Baby.
The DG award is always an indicator of how director's are voting and how they will more than likely vote for the Best Director Oscar. Out of the 56 awards handed out by the Director's Guild, 50 of the winners have gone on to win the Oscar. (Twice in the last five years, however, this has not been the case.)
People.......I'm shocked. I wasn't expecting this.
