It's every millennial's cult-favorite-deeper-meaning-too-cool-to-understand movie "Donnie Darko." It's a really solid movie with good performances and is well shot. Nostalgia keeps it feeling almost magical, but remove that history and it could be a little hokey. It's probably still cool enough to convince a slew of new teens that it might contain the meaning of life and death.  We'll see! We pair it with a Sauvignon Blanc called The Loop because of storyline reasons. 

Metacritic Score: 71/100

Movie Sync Notes: We purchased "Donnie Darko" on Amazon Prime Video for $2.99. We start "Donnie Darko" 11:35 into the pod, and push play on part two 1:11:29 into the pod.
