Donnie Darko (2001)

Een film waarvan ik vermoed dat iedereen hier hem eigenlijk wel kent. Maar aangezien ik hem er niet tussen heb zien staan en de film het zeer zeker wel verdient doe ik het bij deze.
Het is een film waarin het fenomeen tijdreizen aan te pas komt. Het wordt zeer uitzonderlijk en surrealistisch verteld, een pareltje. Je kunt er ellenlange discussies over houden; dus perfect voor een paar filosofen lijkt me.
Donnie Darko:
"Donnie Darko (played by Jake Gyllenhaal) is a troubled teenager in suburban Virginia in October, 1988. He appears to be suffering the symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia. At the start of the film, he has recently stopped taking his medication and as a result is sleepwalking. His parents, Rose and Eddie (Mary McDonnell and Holmes Osborne) and his sisters, Elizabeth and Samantha (Maggie Gyllenhaal and Daveigh Chase), are concerned about him. One night at dinner, Donnie and his sister get into a profane argument during which Elizabeth reveals she knows Donnie is no longer taking his medication. Rose confronts Donnie in his bedroom and he calls her a "bitch". Guiltily, Donnie resumes taking his medication. On October 2, however, he sleepwalks and meets Frank (James Duval), a man in a menacing bunny costume. Frank tells him that in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds, the world will end. That night, a jet engine mysteriously crashes through the roof of the Darkos' house, destroying Donnie's bedroom. "
