Hammond: PGA Award Validates ‘The Artist’ 2012 PGA Award Winners This was one of the tightest and certainly best produced Producers Guild Of America awards I have seen (Paula Wagner and Michael Manheim were the event chairs). In fact it was one of the best Guild shows period. The clip reels across the board were exceptional — starting with a hilarious opening montage of movies featuring actors playing producers, agents and studio heads including scenes from everything from Singin’ In The Rain to Barton Fink, from Tom Cruise in his Scott Rudin-takeoff in Tropic Thunder to Martin Short’s beautiful bit as the quintissential showbiz phony Neil Sussman in Christopher Guest’s underappreciated cult classic The Big Picture (“I don’t know you. I don’t know your work. But I think you are a genius and I am never wrong”) to Sigourney Weaver as a take-no-prisoners network exec in the little-seen gem The TV Set.
