The science fiction fantasy was named best drama and the filmmaker was honored as best director. The honors from the Hollywood Foreign Press Association are considered the start of the award season in Hollywood.
Avatar is set on a fictional planet called Pandora, a distant four light years from Earth. The film blends cutting edge 3D technology with a sci-fi fantasy theme.
