Show Notes
A first time writer-director, in the right place at the right time, developed a story about a troubled young man, in the wrong place at the right time, as Donnie Darko became a dark twisted tale of cultural significance against a mind-bending plot, and resulting controversy surrounding its use of gun wielding after Columbine, and imagery of a plane crash just after 9/11.
These factors would mean it would flop when it did eventually reach US cinemas in October 2001, however Donnie Darko would find new life revelling in its cult status, and achieve the ultimate honour - being the favourite at college campuses across the US, and becoming THE movie you needed to see.
Not that you'd ever understand it, of course...
I would love to hear your thoughts on Donnie Darko !
