I really didn’t know Donnie and Elizabeth were siblings in real life the first time I watched this and it makes all their scenes even better, especially the opening at the dinner table. I love the Gyllenhaals Finally watched the directors cut and it absolutely holds up on rewatch. One of the best movies ever. So well paced, so funny, and so deeply thoughtful. I don’t feel like I can fully explain why this movie is so perfect but it just is, from start to finish. PERFECT 10/10 movies
