Richard Kelly, Director
Appeared at the 2001 Sundance Film Festival
Like NAPOLEON DYNAMITE and AMÉLIE, Richard Kelly’s edgy and enigmatic cult favorite has emerged as a defining film of the past decade. Jake Gyllenhaal plays the unusual titular suburban teen, an outsider beset by visions of a gigantic sinister rabbit named Frank. And he believes he can see into the future and travel in time. Soulful, comic and moving, DONNIE DARKO’s distinctive examination of tragedy and loss, psychosis and teen romance stands as one of the most original works of recent American cinema.
