Jason Reitman ain't afraid of his dad's ghost.

As awards season closes in on us once more it's time for the list makers to list. The nominees to be nominated and for the contenders to make their presence known.

The Hollywood Reporter got 5 of this years most visible Directors and sat them in a room with a lens on them. The conversation is loose, the banter entertaining and the philosophy of the craft worth pondering. Be warned though, it runs for an entire hour.

Watch the interview with Alexander Payne (The Descendents), Jason Reitman (Young Adults), Steve McQueen (Shame), Michel Hazanavicius (The Artist) and Mike Mills (Beginners)

A bonus, here is The Hollywood Reporter's Actor Roundtable where George Clooney, Gary Oldman, Albert Brookes and Christopher Plummer, provide a reality check on superstar actordom.
