The director's guild nominates its five favorite directors tomorrow. This race is particularly interesting because it could go so many different ways. Will they honor veteran Sidney Lumet? Will they go for Julian Schnabel and Paul Thomas Anderson who have come on strong in the final stretch? Will they snub Tim Burton and Joe Wright, whose films were snubbed by SAG? Will they honor Jason Reitman, whose screenwriter and lead have hogged all the attention? Will they go for actor/director Sean Penn? We'll wait and see...
Until then here are my predictions:
The Coen Brothers - No Country for Old Men
Paul Thomas Anderson - There Will Be Blood
Tim Burton - Sweeney Todd
Julian Schnabel - The Diving Bell and the Butterfly
Joe Wright - Atonement
