Nowadays, we are watching the film Donnie Darko.It was directed and written by Richard Kelly in 2001. However, the story takes place in 1988 in the town of Middlesex, Virginia, during the time of the United States presidential election. Donnie Darko (Jake Gyllenhaal) is an intelligent though emotionally troubled teenager who sleepwalks, and is in the medical care of a psychiatrist with whom he discusses his deepest thoughts. One night, a mysterious jet engine from a commercial aircraft falls into Donnie's bedroom; he avoids death by obeying a voice in his head causing him to sleepwalk outside from his room, corrupting space and time. The voice is that of Frank, an (arguably) imaginary friend dressed in a ghastly man-sized rabbit/skull costume. At midnight on October 2nd, Frank prophesizes to Donnie that the end of the world will occur in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds.
What will happen next? You better watch it!
