Di Redazione
All’edizione 2022 dei Directors Guild Awards, i riconoscimenti annuali assegnati dal sindacato registi cinematografici e televisivi, trionfa come previsto Jane Campion per il suo Il potere del cane; miglior regista esordiente è Maggie Gyllenhaal per La figlia oscura.
Un ottimo risultato per entrambi i film targati Netflix (La figlia oscura debutterà però nelle sale italiane con BIM Distribuzione), che catapulta la Campion in cima ai pronostici per la miglior regia agli Oscar e la Gyllenhaal ben posizionata per la statuetta alla sceneggiatura adattata, anche se dovrà vedersela con la stessa Campion nella suddetta categoria.
