Wes AndersonWes Anderson
Wes Anderson is now an official festival regular, and happily so. We showed his Rushmore in 1998, The Royal Tennenbaums in 2001, and this year we’re proud to be opening the NYFF with The Darjeeling Limited. How do the families which populate his work come apart and hold together? What are his influences? Where did his remarkable sense of invention originate? We’ll be discussing these topics and many more.

Hosted by Film Comment editor-at-large and NYFF selection committee member Kent Jones at The New York Times’ new venue on West 41st Street, where a Young Friends of Film reception will follow.

Todd Haynes Todd Haynes
One of the smartest and most idiosyncratic filmmakers working today, Todd Haynes is making his third visit to the NYFF with his meditation on the music and legend of Bob Dylan, I’m Not There. Haynes will discuss the various themes — pop culture, sexuality, the question of the self in the modern world — around which his singular films revolve.

Hosted by The Village Voice film critic and NYFF selection committee member J. Hoberman.

Sidney Lumet Sidney Lumet
Sidney Lumet’s Before the Devil Knows You’re Dead is his first film to be shown at the NYFF since Fail-Safe in 1964. In the interim, he’s been busy directing 35 features and a television show, and has come to be known as a quintessential New York filmmaker, as well as a brilliant chronicler of characters operating in moral grey areas. Lumet will discuss his 50-year journey through the movies.

Hosted by Film Comment Editor Gavin Smith.

Julian Schnabel Julian Schnabel
The Diving Bell and the Butterfly is internationally acclaimed artist Julian Schnabel’s third film and second to be presented in the NYFF – we showed his Before Night Falls here in 2000. Schnabel will discuss what it takes to move from painting to film and back again, and how the two media inform one another.
