The Producers Guild of America hands out its awards on Saturday, January 20, 2019. While the PGA ceremony is not televised, it is an important stop on the road to the Oscars. The PGA Awards has an enviable track record at presaging the eventual Best Picture winner at the Academy Awards. The guild and the academy have agreed on 21 of the most recent 30 Best Picture champs, including last year’s double winner. “Green Book.”
Since both groups expanded the Best Picture category, the PGA has predicted 79 of the 90 (i.e., 86.5%) of the Best Picture nominees over the past decade. This year, it foresaw the academy singling out “Ford v Ferrari,” “The Irishman,” “Jojo Rabbit,” “Joker,” “Little Women,” “Marriage Story,” “1917,” “Once Upon a Time in Hollywood,” and “Parasite” for the top Oscar. The PGA race is rounded out by “Knives Out.”
