You knew that David Fincher’s The Social Network was the opener, and that Julie Taymor’s The Tempest was the centerpiece, but the full slate for this year’s 48th annual New York Film Festival was announced this morning — and now we also know that Clint Eastwood’s Matt Damon–starring, Peter Morgan–scripted Hereafter (which “unfolds three intersecting stories as it entertains the idea that alternate realms of consciousness might exist apart from the life we all know,†says the official synopsis) will close the fest. Also notable: Jean-Luc Godard’s Film Socialisme and Mike Leigh’s Another Year. Click for the complete lineup.
