WRITERS GUILD AWARDS
The Writers Guild of America named the best in writing for film and television in a ceremony on Saturday night. TFF #47's Parasite, written by Bong Joon-ho and Han Jin Won, was named the Best Original screenplay for 2019. It's the first time in the guilds history that a script for a film in a language other than English has been named the recipient of the WGA award.
Meanwhile, the Adapted Screenplay award went to Taika Waititi for penning the adaptation of Caging Skies into Jojo Rabbit.
Both films' scripts are Oscar nominated.

LATEST GURUS OF GOLD FOR FEATURE FILM OSCAR CATEGORIES
We Gurus have our latest round of collective predictions up for all 21 feature film categories over at Movie City News. You can find that linked here.
If we Gurus are correct, at this point we are guessing that TFF #47 films win Oscars as follows:
Parasite (2): Best International Film, Best Film Editing
Ford v Ferrari (2): Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Mixing
Judy (1): Best Actress: Renee Zellweger
Marriage Story (1): Best Supporting Actress: Laura Dern
The rest of the 21 feature categories are currently predicted to go like this:
1917 (3): Picture, Director, Cinematography
Once Upon a Time (3): Supporting Actor, Original Screenplay, Production Design
Joker (2): Actor, Original Score
Little Women (2): Adapted Screenplay, Costumes
American Factory: Documentary
Toy Story 4: Animated
Bombshell: Makeup/Hair
Avengers: Endgame: Visual Effects
Rocketman: Song
Couple of quick notes: It feels to me like Parasite is making a late surge for Best Picture, Director and Original Screenplay. Also seeming to be gathering some heat is Jojo Rabbit.
