Everything Everywhere All at Once’srecognition during awards time of year has been nothing unforesightful of big . Between itsGLAAD nominating speech , and couplet of Twin Falls during theGolden Globes , the film seems poised to have some kind of triumph when the Oscars stray around , particularly since it11 nominating speech ,
Last nighttime , the Directors Guild of America hold its own awards ceremony , and directors Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert ( aka the Daniels ) gain the award for Best Director . It was unquestionably a surprise to the both of them , which Scheinert made clear when he went , “ Holy shit , this is crazy ! ” on stage duringtheir speech . The dyad beat out a heap lineup of fellow nominee , all of them with crowd - pleasing or hits in their own right hand : Steven Spielberg ( The Fablemans ) , Todd Field ( Tár ) , Martin McDonaugh ( The Banshees of Inisherin ) , Joseph Kosinski ( Top Gun : Maverick ) . Their winnings is further notable in that they ’re the third pair in DGA history to win for best director ; Robert Wise & Jerome Robbins won for West Side Story in 1961 , and brothers Joel & Ethan Coen call for the award in 2007 with No Country for Old Men .
Over the past decade , the Best Director at the DGAs often take home the Best Director award at the Oscars themselves . ( Sam Mendes get ahead DGA ’s “ Best Director ” for 1917 in 2020 , but Bong Joon - Ho won the Oscar that year with Parasite . ) This year ’s list of DGA candidate is almost couple the Oscars , but instead of Kosinksi , the latter ceremony has Ruben Östlund ( Triangle of Sadness ) . If that “ DGA win = Oscar profits ” system of logic support here , we may see the Daniels onstage once again in a handful of workweek when the Oscars air on Sunday night , March 12 .
