Helmers Honored<br />
With Guillermo del<br />
Toro’s (6) win for directorial<br />
achievement in<br />
feature film at the DGA’s<br />
annual ceremony, his<br />
sci-fi fantasy <strong>The</strong> Shape<br />
of Water — having also<br />
earned the Producers Guild<br />
of America’s top honor<br />
in January — has consolidated<br />
its status as Oscar<br />
frontrunner. Accepting<br />
his award at <strong>The</strong> Beverly<br />
Hilton, del Toro acknowledged<br />
that his film doesn’t<br />
fit the awards-season<br />
mold and thanked his fellow<br />
directors for “allowing<br />
us as a genre to come<br />
into the conversation.”<br />
Jordan Peele’s (1) Get Out,<br />
another genre entry, also<br />
was recognized when the<br />
guild honored its helmer for<br />
first-time feature film<br />
directing. “I truly believe<br />
these things we put out<br />
into the world, these stories<br />
of our love and passion,<br />
are the greatest weapons<br />
against the hate and the<br />
bigotry,” said Peele at the<br />
podium. <strong>The</strong> event, hosted<br />
by Judd Apatow (3), also<br />
saw such television winners<br />
as <strong>The</strong> Handmaid’s Tale’s<br />
Reed Morano, Veep’s Beth<br />
McCarthy-Miller and<br />
Big Little Lies’ Jean-Marc<br />

Estevez’s (8) <strong>The</strong> Public.<br />
<strong>The</strong> first two days of<br />
the fest, which runs<br />
through Feb. 10, bestowed<br />
Willem Dafoe with the<br />
Cinema Vanguard Award<br />
and Gary Oldman (7) —<br />
who received a standing<br />
ovation — with the Maltin<br />
Modern Master Award<br />
on Feb. 1 at the Arlington<br />
<strong>The</strong>atre. Other highlights<br />
included Saoirse<br />
Ronan’s (9) Santa Barbara<br />
Award win Feb. 4 and a<br />
