Cronenberg, Godard in New York Film Fest lineup

NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Film Festival has announced a lineup heavy on the hits from May’s Cannes Film Festival, including David Cronenberg’s grimly dark Hollywood satire, “Maps to the Stars,” and Jean-Luc Godard’s 3-D film, “Goodbye to Language.”

Bennett Miller’s wrestling drama, “Foxcatcher,” and Mike Leigh’s J.M.W. Turner biopic, “Mr. Turner,” also will screen at the 52nd New York Film Festival. The slate was announced Wednesday by the Film Society of Lincoln Center. The annual festival runs Sept. 26 through Oct. 12.

Also coming to the festival are: “Clouds of Sils Maria” starring Juliette Binoche and Kristen Stewart, the Dardenne brothers’ “Two Days, One Night” and Sundance award-winner “Whiplash.”

Previously announced were festival opener “Gone Girl,” the centerpiece “Inherent Vice” and the closer “Birdman or The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance.”
