PGA for 'Brokeback'

Last night the Producers Guild of America (PGA) handed out their annual awards, and Ang Lee’s ‘Brokeback’ came away as best film, beating out challengers like ‘Crash’, ‘Capote’, ‘Good Night, and Good Luck’, and ‘Walk the Line’.

The PGA’s are usually considered a strong Oscar indicator. But last year they chose ‘The Aviator’ as best film, while the Academy went on to choose ‘Million Dollar Baby’. Other PGA winners included ‘Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Wererabbitt’, beating out computer animated movies like ‘Madagascar’ and Disney’s first CGI movie ‘Chicken Little’ for the Guild’s Animated Motion Picture prize.
