Donnie Darko is a 2001 psychological science fiction drama written and directed by Richard Kelly. Jake Gyllenhaal plays Donnie, a sleepwalking teenager in a 1988 Virginia suburb who escapes death when a jet engine crashes into his bedroom. Guided by Frank, a sinister figure in a rabbit costume, he is drawn into visions about time travel and fate, while his sister, played by Maggie Gyllenhaal, his teachers and new girlfriend Gretchen try to make sense of him. A box-office flop, it became a cult classic.
