The nominations were released this morning for the DGA Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Feature Film for 2013. This is a major award — as these nominees are usually the front-runners in the race for the Best Director Oscar.
“To be chosen by your peers in a year full of incredibly well-crafted films is the true marker of outstanding directorial achievement,” said Directors Guild of America President Paris Barclay in a news release on the organization’s website . “The passion and vision of each of the nominees resulted in tremendously diverse films that kept audiences mesmerized.”
Here are the nominees.
The winner will be announced at the 66th Annual DGA Awards dinner and ceremony on Saturday evening, January 25, 2014, at the Hyatt Regency Century Plaza.
