The
Directors Guild of America (DGA) was first founded as the Screen Directors Guild
in 1938. In 1960 the merger of the Screen Directors Guild and the Radio and
Television Directors Guild (RTDG) formed the Directors Guild of America, Inc.
In 2000 the guild represented
more than 10,000 members working both in the US and abroad, who's work is
represented in theatrical, industrial, educational and documentary films, as
well as television both filmed and taped, radio, videos and commercials. The DGA
Award for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Feature Film has nearly always
been a perfect forecast of the winner of the Oscar for Best Director. Since the
start of the DGA awards in 1949 the winners of both awards has only
differed six times. Which are listed below.
