It was a blessed night at the fourth-annual Directors Guild of Canada Awards on Saturday, as two saintly works took home the hardware. Michael McGowan won for outstanding achievement in direction in a feature film for his teenage-marathoner film Saint Ralph, while Jerry Ciccoritti won in the television film or miniseries category for Lives of the Saints.
Ken Finkleman took home the TV series award for his work with The Newsroom, while the late Daniel Petrie Sr., director of Fort Apache, the Bronx, was posthumously honoured with the guild's lifetime achievement award. Staff
