Alexander Payne’s “The Descendants” will close the 49th edition of the New York Film Festival, taking place September 30 - October 16, the Film Society of Lincoln Center, which organizes the annual event said Wednesday. Screening at Alice Tully Hall on Sunday, October 16, Payne’s latest will mark the director’s third visit to the event (his previous titles presented were “About Schmidt” and “Sideways”). Fox Searchlight is releasing the film on November 23rd. Also making a return to the festival stage is “On Cinema” (previously titled “The Cinema Inside Me”), featuring an in-depth, illustrated conversation with Payne. 

NYFF’s main slate includes the already announced opener, Roman Polanski’s “Carnage,” Simon Curtis’ “My Week with Marilyn,” screening as the festival’s Centerpiece, and recently announced Galas for David Cronenberg’s “A Dangerous Method” and Pedro Almodovar’s “The Skin I Live In.”

Additions unveiled today round out NYFF’s main slate of 27 feature films, including 23 features added Wednesday. In addition to Payne, other filmmakers joining the lineup include the Dardennes, Kaurismäki, von Trier, Wenders and more (full list and descriptions below).

The 2011 edition of NYFF will also feature what organizers describe as a “blend of programming to complement the main-slate of films,” including: the Masterworks programs, additional titles added to the previously announced “Ben Hur,” Nicholas Ray’s “We Can’t Go Home” and “Velvet Bullets and Steel Kisses: Celebrating the Nikkatsu Centennial,” as well as “Views from the Avant-Garde.” More special events and screenings will be announced in more detail soon.

“In many of the films in this year’s Festival, characters pass from recognition of a problem or situation to actual resistance,” commented Richard Peña, Selection Committee Chair & Program Director of the Film Society of Lincoln Center in a statement. “This confrontational attitude is perhaps a sign of our increasingly polarized times.
