Highlights from the following week’s line-up include Atom Egoyan’s erotic drama Chloe, starring Liam Neeson and Julianne Moore;  Leonardo DiCaprio in Martin Scorsese’s adaptation of Dennis Lehane’s crime novel Shutter Island and Woody Allen’s Whatever Works.

The ten-day festival includes a tribute to Michael Dwyer, festival founder and Irish Times film correspondent who died recently, aged 58. The series includes Oliver Stone’s Salvador, Stephen Frears’s My Beautiful Laundrette and the Italian epic The Best of Youth.
