Donnie Darko

Directed by Richard Kelly
2001
★ 5.2 editorial score

It failed in theaters weeks after September 11 and became a cult object on DVD: Richard Kelly was twenty-six, and nobody has ever fully agreed on what happens in it.

“Donnie Darko is a marvelous, messed-up antidote to the sitcom alienation of ''American Beauty,'' starring Jake Gyllenhaal as a sullen, schizophrenic teenager who hears voices in his head from a man-size rabbit with a twisted-mask face.”
— Lisa Schwarzbaum · Entertainment Weekly
