Donnie Darko is a 2001 American science fiction movie written and directed by Richard Kelly and produced by Flower Films. This film features Jake Gyllenhaal, Jena Malone, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Drew Barrymore, Mary McDonnell, Katharine Ross, Patrick Swayze, Noah Wyle, Stu Stone, Daveigh Chase, and James Duval.
Donnie Darko is a disturbed adolescent who narrowly avoids a horrific accident and gets visions of Frank, a mystery character dressed as a rabbit who tells him that the world will end in just over 28 days. Frank starts to persuade Donnie to conduct a series of crimes.
The movie had its world premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 19, 2001, and a limited theatrical release on October 26. Because the movie’s advertising portrayed a crashed plane and the September 11 attacks had occurred a month and a half before, it received little publicity, resulting in a low box office performance of $517,375 in its first run.
