The Pen Is Mightier...

Variety reports on the winners of last night's Writer's Guild Of America awards:

The Writers Guild of America has given its best adapted screenplay award to Larry McMurtry and Diana Ossana for "Brokeback Mountain" and its best original screenplay prize to Paul Haggis and Bobby Moresco for "Crash."

Awards, based on voting by the 13,000 WGA members, were announced Saturday night at simultaneous ceremonies at the Hollywood Palladium and the Waldorf-Astoria in Gotham
{New York City}.

It's no surprise that these two films walked away with the top prizes last night, given the attention both movies have received throughout the current award season.
