This weekend, the winners of the 78th Annual DGA Awards were announced at an upbeat celebration in Los Angeles. The 2025 awards season shuffles onward heading towards the finale with these director prizes, ending with the Academy Awards airing in March. This year it's One Battle After Another director Paul Thomas Anderson (loving known as PTA) dominating the awards season - taking home the top DGA prize for his beloved film starring Leonardo DiCaprio & Chase Infiniti. Along with The Plague director Charlie Polinger winning for Best First Feature. A superb film about bullies & being yourself – highly recommend it. I also totally love OBAA, so I couldn't be happier. In addition, Ukraine doc 2000 Meters to Andriivka (directed by Mstyslav Chernov) won the prize for Best Documentary; Stephen Chbosky won for directing the Netflix movie Nonnas; and prizes went to Amanda Marsalis for an episode of "The Pitt", and Seth Rogen & Evan Goldberg for an episode of "The Studio", in the TV categories.
