The movie that wins the Directors Guild of America Award usually bags best picture and director at the Oscars, of course. Many pundits believe that things may be different this year, though. While David Fincher (‘The Social Network’) is widely believed to be a cinch to win DGA and the Oscar too for helming, there’s suddenly major buzz for ‘The King’s Speech’ in the race for best picture. If ‘Speech’ has really been a rumbling volcano all along and we pundits just didn’t take it seriously, then it might even blast through the DGA Awards with a surprise victory for Tom Hooper. Possible? Pipe in with your opinion below. The guild prize gets doled out on Saturday night.
