The success of
The Dark Knight continues into 2009 with the announcement of the Producers Guild of America nominations. The PGA unveiled their picks for film and television this morning for its 20th annual awards show.
Their five choices for film of the year are
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Dark Knight,
Frost/Nixon,
Milk, and
Slumdog Millionaire.
The reason these five films are ones to keep your eye on, or go see in the theater, is because many of the PGA members are also Academy members, who vote on the Oscars.
It’ll be interesting to see who wins the PGA award on the 24th, because it may be a foreshadowing of what’s to come on February 22nd, which is Oscar Sunday. Which film is your favorite to win? For the full list of nominees, click
