"Birdman" and "Boyhood" two of the front runners for Hollywood's film honors this year have been nominated for the top Producers Guild Award.
The PGA is a reliable predictor of the best picture Oscar.
Among the 10 films nominated for outstanding producer in a motion picture were "Nightcrawler" and the tale of a drummer's obsession in "Whiplash," both small independent films with Oscar chances.
The notable exclusions were two films that opened on Christmas day, Angelina Jolie's World War II survival story "Unbroken," and the civil rights drama "Selma."
Clint Eastwood's portrayal of an Iraq war hero in "American Sniper" made the list, as did two British biopics," The Imitation Game" and "The Theory of Everything."
Rounding out the nominations were "Gone Girl", "Foxcatcher" and "The Grand Budapest Hotel."
The PGA hands out its awards on January 24th.
