Am 10. Februar haben die weltweit über 18.000 Mitglieder der DIRECTORS GUILD of AMERICA über die bemerkenswertesten Leistungen in der Regie entschieden. Die Mitglieder kommen aus den Bereichen von Regie, Regie-Assistenz, Produktions-managment, Aufnahmenleitung und Produktionsassistenz.
Zum fünften Mal führte Judd Apatow durch den Abend im Beverly Hilton, Beverly Hills, mit seinen sehr bissigen, aber treffenden Anmerkungen. Deadline nennt seine Reden den Heiligen Gral an Monologen bei den Preisverleihungen. In 76 Jahren gab es nur acht Mal Abweichungen vom DGA Award der besten Filmregie zu dem Regie-Oscar.
Der Lifetime Achievement Award für Fernsehregie ging an David Nutter. Der Frank Capra Achievement Award wurde an Unit Production Manager Janet Knutsen verliehen. Und Stage Manager Gary Natoli wurde mit dem Franklin J. Schaffner Award geehrt.
