Following its surprise Best Picture win at the Golden Globes on Sunday night, 1917 continued racking up accolades this week. Sam Mendes’ World War I drama, which opens in wide release this Friday, earned nominations in the top categories for guild-specific honors the DGA Awards, PGA Awards and WGA Awards while also scoring big at the UK’s version of the Oscars, the BAFTA Awards.
Other major players in all four include Bong Joon-ho’s Parasite and Martin Scorsese’s The Irishman. The DC juggernaut Joker also came away stacked with nominations, leading above all at the BAFTAs, though it was not named a contender by the Director’s Guild of America. Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood is another with a lot of recognition overall, but its screenplay was not eligible for the WGA Awards and so is absent there.
Surprises include the DGA’s nomination of Taika Waititi for helming Jojo Rabbit, which also shows up in the other guilds’ picks. Meanwhile, no women directors are nominated for the DGA’s major award, though three of the nominees for Best First-Time Feature are women (Alma Har’el, Melina Matsoukas and Mati Diop). Greta Gerwig was snubbed by the DGA but her Little Women was nominated by the WGA and the PGA, the only movie directed by a woman among the 10 contenders for the latter’s top award.
Little Women’s producer, Amy Pascal, made history, at least, as the first solo woman producer nominated for that top PGA Award, called the The Darryl F. Zanuck Award. Speaking of firsts, the BAFTAs beat the Oscars to the historical moment of introducing an award for casting, which many in Hollywood have been requesting of the American Academy for years.
