Director Richard Kelly in person for a post film Q&A on Saturday, May 13th

Presented as part of THE CHICAGO CRITICS FILM FESTIVAL

A flop when it was released in theaters in 2007, writer-director Richard Kelly’s wild follow-up to his 2001 cult favorite DONNIE DARKO is looking better and more prescient with every passing year, as this special 10th anniversary screening will prove. Mixing together science-fiction, political satire, paranoid conspiracies, an eclectic cast (including Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sean William Scott, Mandy Moore, Kevin Smith, Wallace Shawn, Amy Poehler and Christopher Lambert) and even a couple of knockout musical numbers to boot, this ambitious, no-holds-barred epic is a singular cinematic experience and the festival is especially happy to be presenting it in glorious 35mm.
