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 />

<strong>The</strong> Santa Barbara<br />

Show Must Go On<br />

Following the deadly<br />

Montecito mudslides,<br />

the 33rd annual festival<br />

powered through with<br />

its opening-night gala<br />

Jan. 31 featuring Emilio<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 />

THR-led Feb. 6 panel with<br />

Oscar-nominated helmers<br />

Greta Gerwig (1), Peele,<br />
