Darko Family I
Donnie Darko
written and directed by Richard Kelly
For me, this cultish movie about a schizophrenic teenager presented a shallow
understanding of both schizophrenia and time travel.

I have reached the end of your book and there are so many things that I need to ask you.
Sometimes I’m afraid of what you might tell me. Sometimes I’m afraid that you’ll
tell me that this is not a work of fiction. I can only hope that the answers will come to
me in my sleep. I hope that when the world comes to an end, I can breathe a sigh of
relief, because there will be so much to look forward to.
