DGA Nominations 2012: Martin Scorsese, Woodsy Allen, Alexander Payne, Michel Hazanavicius and David Fincher Honored

It appears like "The Lady Using the Dragon Tattoo" is not dead from an honours perspective in the end. Under per week following the film received an unexpected nomination in the Producers Guild of America, David Fincher was designated through the Company directors Guild of America among the five best company directors of 2011 for his focus on the thriller. Fincher's inclusion likely stored Steven Spielberg around the outdoors. The director was among the assumed DGA faves for "War Equine," but his title remained from the final ballot. What this may for Spielberg's Oscar chances remains to appear, but: not great! Other DGA nominees: Michel Hazanvicius for "The Artist," Alexander Payne for "The Descendants," Martin Scorsese for "Hugo" and Woodsy Allen for "Night time in Paris." Tate Taylor -- who directed honours-favorite "The AssistanceInch -- seemed to be snubbed through the DGA, however with a PGA nomination along with an ensemble jerk from SAG, his film ought to be one of the selected ones for the best Picture once the Oscar nominees are introduced later this month.
