The winner of the Director Guild of America Award for “Feature Film” usually wins the best director Oscar. As of last year, only six DGA winners in the “Feature Film” category have not also won the best director Oscar. The last time this happened was for the year 2002. Rob Marshall was the DGA choice for Chicago, but he Oscar went to Roman Polanski for The Pianist.
That was until this year. Ben Affleck won the DGA’s “Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Feature Film” award for Argo, but he did not receive a best director Oscar nomination for Argo. So…
