The Film Society of Lincoln Center announced the lineup for the 45th edition of the New York Film Festival yesterday. The festival, scheduled to run from September 28 through October 14, will feature 28 world premieres, three sidebar programs, three special event screenings, and five retrospective films.

Marjane Satrapi and Vincent Paronnaud’s “Persepolis” has been selected as the festival’s closing night film. The animated comingof-age story, based on Ms. Satrapi’s graphic novel about her own childhood in Iran during the Islamic Revolution, won a Jury Prize at this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

The previously announced opening night and centerpiece selections (Wes Anderson’s “The Darjeeling Limited” and the Coen Brothers’ “No Country for Old Men”) will headline a strong American presence. Noah Baumbach, Gus Van Sant, Todd Haynes, Sidney Lumet all return to the festival with American productions. Julian Schnabel and Abel Ferrara come back with international coproductions. And Brian DePalma, John Landis, and Ira Sachs all make their festival debuts.

Five films will be featured as special retrospectives: the anticipated “definitive cut” of Ridley Scott’s “Blade Runner”; the premiere of a new score by the Alloy Orchestra to accompany Josef von Sternberg’s 1927 film “Underworld”; John Ford’s first major film, 1924’s “The Iron Horse”; Sven Gade and Heinz Schall’s 1920 German production of “Hamlet”; and an evening titled The Technicolor Show, introduced by Martin Scorsese and featuring John Stahl’s “Leave Her to Heaven” (1945).

Due to ongoing renovations at Lincoln Center’s Alice Tully Hall, this year’s screenings will be held at the Frederick P. Rose Hall, home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, in the Time Warner Center. Opening Night will be held at Avery Fisher Hall, as well as Rose Hall. Closing Night will be held at Avery Fisher Hall only. For more information, visit www.filmlinc.com.
