Product Details
Writer-director Richard Kellys bold debut film is a social satire a dark comedy a science fiction time-travelling fantasy and a suburban nightmare about an extremely intelligent depressive self-destructive narcoleptic gun-toting sex-crazed teenaged arsonist Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal). DONNIE DARKO is not your typical teen comedy. But like GHOST WORLD and RUSHMORE it uses the trappings of the teen comedy as the entry point for a subversive and trenchant (and also wonderfully entertaining) look at American life. The difference between those films and DONNIE DARKO is that Donnie is an unlikely hero who just might save the world. Its October 1988 in the Virginia suburb of Middlesex. When Frank a grotesque giant bunny (possibly imaginary) leads Donnie out of his house minutes before a plane smashes through his roof he not only saves Donnies life but also warns Donnie that the world is about to end. Over the next few weeks Donnie falls in love with Gretchen (Jena Malone) and tries to figure out what his life means. Kellys film perfectly captures the unease that is quietly scratching under the surface of suburban late 1980s life. Gyllenhaal leads an exceptional cast bringing Kellys twisted but humane vision to life. An exceptional performance is given by Mary McDonnell (PASSION FISH) as Donnies mother.Region 2
