Dunham Wins the Big One

"Tiny Furniture" director Lena Dunham certainly ruled the night Tuesday, taking the SXSW Film Festival's Best Narrative film prize and winning resounding praise from Variety's Peter Debruge as he introduced the winner. In accepting her award, Dunham told the audience that it was amazing to win just one week after "The Hurt Locker" director Kathryn Bigelow won the Best Director prize at the Oscars. "[That] was a big fucking deal for me. So thank you," she said.
