Maggie Inking For Knight Time
Variety sez: Maggie Gyllenhaal's character in The Dark Knight is indeed Rachel Dawes, the self same character that was played by Katie Holmes in the last film.
Well, blow me down with a batfeather - I didn't think they'd need to preserve the identity of such a flatly written cypher. I thought they'd just rename the part, make it a new girl and be done with it. There must be some plot reason, surely? let the speculation begin!
Gyllenhaal's involvement was rumoured a while earlier, this anouncement of her signing is the first official word. Shame she didn't have anything better to do.

How You Say, Er, Densitometer?
Reuters sez: Maggie Gyllenhaal, presenter of the technical Oscars ceremony this last Saturday night, received a rapturous round of applause for correctly pronouncing the word densitometer. I witnessed something similar in a screening of Elizabethtown when Kirsten Dunst nailed Lousville - and to think that people tease me for giving the Langley sequence in Mission: Impossible a standing ovation.
