Brothers Ethan and Joel Coen won on Saturday the top prize from the Directors Guild of America for "No Country for Old Men". Coens are the second team including two persons in a history, who won a Directors Guild honor, after Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins for their "West Side Story" from 1961. It is assumed, that they will be honored with the same price at the Academy Awards, when the Oscar will survive the existing troubles of the writers strike. As we know, presently, there is a writers strike. This is the fact, why the destiny of the famous ceremony Oscar is still uncertain. Writers have been on strike already for three months, and are still refusing the cooperation with the rest of entertainment industry. Also the ceremony Golden Globe has been called off, due to the lack of stars. This show was canceled after celebrities announced, they would not support Writers Guild of America. And, maybe, this is as also the future of Oscar will looks like. This strike is very dangerous, as the film industry is loosing the money every day. "I sure hope so. The Oscars are kind of the link between the world of consumers and the world of entertainment," said Dan Glickman, the head of Motion Picture Association of America, and added: "I mean, a billion people or more watch the Oscars, and so it would be a real shame if we weren't able to keep that precedent, that history of this event going."
