About

Richard Kelly's genre-bending tale of suburban angst sees a fresh-faced Jake Gyllenhaal play Donnie Darko, a high-school kid medicated for the symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia. When a jet engine falls out of the sky, just missing Donnie, his giant rabbit friend Frank offers to help him fulfil his destiny, guiding him through the tangent universe Donnie finds himself stuck in. Part dark thriller, high-school movie, and metaphysical exercise in time-travel, Donnie Darko remains one the definitive cult movies of the early twenty-first century.
