WGA Awards 'Her,' 'Captain Phillips'; ASC Honors 'Gravity;' 'Frozen' Tops the Annie Awards

The Writers Guild offered up a couple of upsets tonight at their awards dinner:

  • Original Screenplay: Spike Jonze, Her
  • Adapted Screenplay: Billy Ray, Captain Phillips
  • Documentary: Sarah Polley, Stories We Tell

American Hustle was expected to win for original, but was trumped by Spike Jonze and Her, which probably makes it the favorite for the Oscar now, but only slightly. Adapted Screenplay going to Captain Phillips was something of a surprise, but since 12 Years a Slave was ineligible for consideration here, that will very likely not repeat at the Oscars. Meanwhile, the American Society of Cinematographers gave their top film award to Emmanuel Lubezki for Gravity, which was not a shock, as it's practically guaranteed to take the Cinematography Oscar next month as well.
