The Oscars: Best director
There were few surprises in the best director category. But the nomination of Joel and Ethan Coen for “True Grit” was a bit of a surprise. “Grit” was completely shut out of Golden Globe nominations, but the Globes aren’t exactly credible, especially this year.
Other nominees were Darren Aronofsky for “Black Swan”; Tom Hooper for “The King’s Speech”; David Fincher for “The Social Network” and David O. Russell for “The Fighter.”
