‘Darjeeling’ to open film fest
The New York Film Festival will open with Wes Anderson’s “The Darjeeling Limited” and honor the Coen brothers’ “No Country for Old Men” as its centerpiece in a particularly American slate for the internationally-minded festival.
The Film Society of Lincoln Center, which produces the festival, announced the opening and centerpiece films Thursday, but not the closing movie. The 45th annual festival runs from Sept. 28 to Oct. 14.
Also announced for this year’s slate were the Cannes Palme d’Or winner “4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days,” directed by Cristian Mungiu of Romania; and “Secret Sunshine,” by Korean director Lee Chang-dong.
