Maggie Gyllenhaal Chairs the Venice Jury

TL;DR

Deadline files Maggie Gyllenhaal as jury president of the Saturday table; chairing is not a prize.

MSM Perspective

Deadline filed Gyllenhaal as the chair who delivered the Lion. That is not a statue.

X Perspective

Festival feeds treat a jury president as a winner.

Maggie Gyllenhaal chaired the Venice competition jury that delivered Saturday's table. [1] This paper printed Woman Unknown as the Lion. A jury president is not a winner. A defense of the pick is not a box-office print. Print the chair. Do not invent a statue for her.

Deadline filed the presidency as the frame around el-Toukhy, Arcel, Lee, Khrzhanovsky, NAZA, and Malkovich. [1] The frame is not the prize list. Reuters listed winners, not the chair as a category. [2] Keep the chair on this page. Keep the Lion on the lead.

Saturday's news is that the table arrived under her name. It is not that she was appointed last month. Print Saturday's chairing. Leave a second jury night uninvented.
