PIETA is a masterpiece, the Golden Lion is well deserved.

Wait, I'm seeing tweets that PTA did in fact win best director? Is this false? What a clusterfuck on info going around the interwebz

It's been a complete mess, but it sounds like PTA did indeed win Best Director. It was originally announced that way, then it was said that they'd make a mistake, but the festival's website lists him as Best Director, and Seidl with the Jury Prize, so that seems as concrete as you could ask for.

No.... it's PT anderson who wins best director actually.
