Donnie Darko
The second watch of this film was so good especially because I watched the directors cut which gave me more information to come up with ideas and theories which is one of the best aspects of this movie.
Donnie darko also has an amazing soundtrack that increases the impact of the slightly off atmosphere of the tangent universe and contorted mind of Donnie himself.
Jake Gyllenhall also plays an amazing character as he showcases that Donnie Darko is mentally ill whilst also give us a character that we can empathise with.
I also adore the scene at the end when donnie laughs before his death as it is extremely compelling. Their are two ways in which I have interpreted this. One is it is a laugh of joy as Donnie realises his time has come and he no longer has to suffer. On the other hand it could also be one of frustration or sadness as he is alone and he doesn't want to die alone.
Overall, Donnie Darko is a weird and interesting film about the fear of death and being alone and also the thought of free will.<blockquote>"I don't wanna die alone"</blockquote>
