Donnie Darko and Vanessa
« on: August 03, 2011, 01:07:41 pm »
I was watching Donnie Darko and made some fun discoveries.

-In one scene they talk about  "A Brief History of Time".

-In one scene the class gets to read "Watership Down and watch and discuss the movie"

- In one scene the little sister made a review of "The last unicorn", the movie vanessa mentioned on twitter a while back.


Can it be just coincidences or do you think Vanessa read these books after she saw the movie?
I't seems that she must have been pretty inspired of it and we all now she has a little crush on Donnie  ;)

I think partially.  I think the Last Unicorn was something she probably saw in childhood, maybe even started her love of unicorns?  Most everybody reads Watership Down in high school, especially any advanced class.  Possibly the Stephen Hawking book though, that one I can see.

I saw the animated version of Watership Down when I about 7 or something. Strangely it wasn't traumatising.
