The Daniels take the top prize at the DGA awards for 'Everything Everywhere All At Once.'
The 75th annual Directors Guild Awards were handed out last night at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles, and there was something of an upset as Daniel Kwan & Daniel Scheinert, directors of Everything Everywhere All at Once, beat out Steven Spielberg and his passion project, The Fabelmans, for the top prize.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY At last year's awards, the guild bestowed the honor upon Jane Campion for her film The Power of the Dog, which was a key milestone in her journey to claiming the big prize at that year's Oscars ceremony. Despite that win, as well as the previous year's win for Chloé Zhao on Nomadland, there was no room for any women in the slate of nominees this year, despite impressive work from the likes of Sarah Polley and Maria Schrader.
However, there was a female victory in the shape of Charlotte Wells, who was awarded the prize for Outstanding Directorial Effort of a First-Time Theatrical Feature Film Director for her film Aftersun. Aftersun is represented at the Oscars this year in the form of Paul Mescal, it's leading man, who is nominated for Best Actor in a Leading Role.
