So is “1917” slipping into place as the late-comer to the race that’s become the horse to beat?

Two wins at the Golden Globes, now a WGA nomination for Best Original Screenplay.

Heck, why didn’t all this buzz happen for “Dunkirk?” Mutter…

“1917” goes into wide release Friday.

BEST ORIGINAL SCREENPLAY nominees

1917, Written by Sam Mendes & Krysty Wilson-Cairns; Universal Pictures

Booksmart, Written by Emily Halpern & Sarah Haskins and Susanna Fogel and Katie Silberman; United Artists Releasing

Knives Out, Written by Rian Johnson; Lionsgate

Marriage Story, Written by Noah Baumbach; Netflix

Parasite, Screenplay by Bong Joon Ho and Han Jin Won, Story by Bong Joon Ho; Neon

The WGA also nominated “Parasite,” “Booksmart,” “Knives Out” and “Marriage Story” for best original script for a feature film.

Remember, Quentin Tarantino refused to join the WGA, a tiff over an earlier screen credit going back decades, now. He’s still a likely best director nominee and possible winner.

ADAPTED MOVIE SCREENPLAY? Here they are.

“A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood,” Written by Micah Fitzerman-Blue & Noah Harpster, Inspired by the Article “Can You Say…Hero?” by Tom Junod; TriStar Pictures

“The Irishman,” Screenplay by Steven Zaillian, Based upon the Book I Heard You Paint Houses by Charles Brandt; Netflix

“Jojo Rabbit,” Screenplay by Taika Waititi, Based on the book Caging Skies by Christine Leunens; Fox Searchlight

“Joker,” Written by Todd Phillips & Scott Silver, Based on Characters from DC Comics; Warner Bros. Pictures

“Little Women,” Screenplay by Greta Gerwig, Based on the Novel by Louisa May Alcott; Sony Pictures.

The WGA just breathed a little life into the fading hopes of “The Irishman,” I figure. “Jojo” and “Beautiful Day” also seem to be outliers, movies being pushed into the past but given a little hope, here.

“Little Women” may gain a little tailwind here after the Globes shutout.

WGA nominations for TV, streaming or otherwise, are here at the official website of the Writers Guild.
