Looking over this years DGA noms I thought them especially disgraceful & pedestrian, with the exception of Spike Jonze. Once again they ignored Paul Thomas Anderson & what about Almodovar & Kimberly Pierce & as a gesture would it have killed them to nominated the late great Kubrick for his flawed but still brilliant & marvelous Eyes Wide Shut. No doubt the Oscar noms will be just as ludicrous. Ira Joel Haber Cinemage Books ---- To sign off Screen-L, e-mail [log in to unmask] and put SIGNOFF Screen-L in the message. Problems?
