A new Jonathan Demme film, an Ed Harris western and a dramatic French cinema hit are among the latest batch of titles set to screen at the Toronto film festival this September.

U.S. filmmaker Demme's family drama Rachel Getting Married, starring Anne Hathaway, joins the glitzy gala lineup, along with British-U.S. co-production The Other Man, helmed by Notes on a Scandal director Richard Eyre.

The latter, an adaptation of a Bernhard Schlink short story, stars Liam Neeson as a man who discovers that his wife (Laura Linney) has had a secret relationship with another man (Antonio Banderas).

Three films have also been added to the special presentations slate:

  • Appaloosa (U.S.) — A western directed, co-written and starring Harris. He and Viggo Mortensen portray men hired to clean up a lawless town in the film that also stars Renée Zellweger and Jeremy Irons.
  • I've Loved You So Long (Il y a longtemps que je t'aime, France) — Written and directed by novelist and filmmaker Philippe Claudel, the drama follows a woman (Kristin Scott Thomas) who reunites with her sister after 15 years of estrangement. The film had a successful theatrical run in France earlier this year and won praise at the Berlin International Film Festival.
  • La Fille de Monaco (France) — Anne Fontaine's film about a brilliant lawyer who travels to Monaco to work a prominent case, but becomes unhinged when he falls for a sexy she-devil.

The 2008 Toronto International Film Festival runs Sept. 4-13.
