Life is but a dream: Jake Gyllenhaal and Jena Malone
starstarstarstar
Writer-director Richard Kelly's ingenious debut feature gets off to a shaky start, but by the time the movie finally shows its hand in the final reel, every piece of the puzzle has slipped neatly into place. Jake Gyllenhaal stars as Donnie Darko, a suburban high-school student who, like a lot of teenagers, feels awkward, misunderstood and alienated. But Donnie is particularly troubled: He's being haunted by a giant, dirty rabbit, and is nearly killed when a jet engine crashes through his bedroom ceiling. Read the complete review for Donnie Darko

  • Gossip's Ed Westwick and More Join Darko Sequel | Movie News | 5/30/2008
    Gossip Girl may be over for the season, but Ed Westwick (aka Chuck), is keeping busy. The British actor has just been cast in S. Darko, a follow-up to Donnie Darko, the 2001 cult fave that helped put the Gyllenhaal sibs on the map, says the Reporter.The Darko sequel will feature the story of Samantha, Donnie's sister, who leaves town with her best friend in the face of a broken family and strange visions. Daveigh Chase will return as the Darko sis, while Step Up to the Streets 2's Briana Evigan just joined to play Samantha's friend. Along with Westwick and Evigan, Elizabeth Berkley has also just joined the film. She'll play a former drug addict who's now devoted to Jesus — and to her hunky pastor. How will the follow-up play out? Anything with Westwick is promising...as long as it doesn't distract him from his important work on the Upper East Side. — Anna DimondUse our Online Video Guide to see clips and more on Donnie Darko.Related:• Video Q&A: Up Close with... read more
