'Gosford Park' has seven Oscar nominations while 'A Beautiful Mind' has eight, and both are also contending for best picture.\u003cbr/\u003eWinners of the Guild's 54th annual awards, which are considered a bellwether for the Oscars, were announced in ceremonies held in Beverly Hills by the WGA-West, and in New York by the WGA-East.\u003cbr/\u003e'Gosford Park' triumphed over four other nominated movies: the revisionist musical 'Moulin Rouge'; 'The Man Who Wasn't There', a black-and-white thriller about a laconic blackmailer; 'Monster's Ball', in which a racist white man and a black woman fall in love; and 'The Royal Tenenbaums', a quirky comedy about a family of failed geniuses.\u003cbr/\u003eCompetition for 'A Beautiful Mind' included 'Black Hawk Down', based on Mark Bowden's book about a deadly U.S. battle in Mogadishu, Somalia; 'Bridget Jones's Diary', from Helen Fielding's novel about a single woman's romances in London; 'Ghost World', based on Daniel Clowes' graphic novel about a disenchanted teenager; and 'The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring', adapted from the first part of J.R.R.

He was then able to write and direct the first two 'Pink Panther' films movies in the mid-1960s, creating bumbling French Inspector Jacques Clouseau with Peter Sellers.\u003cbr/\u003eHe also wrote and directed 'S.O.B' in which a failed director attempts to revive his career by showing a classic star - Julie Andrews - baring her breasts on celluloid.\u003cbr/\u003eAndrews was equally daring when she starred in the Edwards production 'Victor/Victoria', as a female singer who dressed up as a man impersonating a female singer in drag.\u003cbr/\u003eBlake Edwards wrote his first film, 'Bring Your Smile Along' in 1955, and went on to write a total of 47 movies.\u003cbr/\u003eOther WGA winners announced Saturday: \u003cbr/\u003eOriginal long form: 'Conspiracy', Loring Mandel.\u003cbr/\u003eAdapted long form: 'Anne Frank', teleplay by Kirk Ellis, based on the book by Melissa Muller.\u003cbr/\u003eEpisodic drama: 'Pine Barrens' ('The Sopranos'), teleplay by Terence Winter, story by Tim Van Patten and Terence Winter.\u003cbr/\u003eEpisodic comedy: 'Italy', parts 1 and 2 ('Everybody Loves Raymond'), Philip Rosenthal.\u003cbr/\u003eComedy-variety, music, awards, tributes, specials: 'The Kennedy Center Honors', written by Don Baer and George Stevens Jr., film\u003cbr/\u003esequences written by Sara Lukinson, Harry Miles Muheim.\u003cbr/\u003eComedy-variety (including talk) series: 'Late Night with Conan O'Brien', Mike Sweeney, Chris Albers, Ellen Barancik, Andy Blitz,\u003cbr/\u003eKevin Dorff, Jonathan Glaser, Michael Gordon, Brian Kiley, Michael Koman, Brian McCann, Guy Nicolucci, Conan O'Brien, Andrew \u003cbr/\u003eDaytime serials: 'All My Children', Agnes Nixon, Jean Passanante, Craig Carlson, Frederick Johnson, N.
