Donnie Darko - School and Classroom scene (Head over Heels - Tears for Fears)

[mattbatben10]

Am I the only person who knew this song before I saw this movie?

Oh well. Amazing song, scene and movie.

[0hNoNotHimAgain]

@mattbatben10 No, you're not alone. I loved this song back when it was a hit on radio & MTV (tho not as much as "Everybody Wants to Rule the World," my favorite TFF tune at the time).

However, since my life-changing initiation into the extraordinary world of Donnie Darko, I must admit that my appreciation/enjoyment of the song has been forever enhanced by its association with this powerful scene in this phenomenal movie!

[grandlars]

Such brilliant work! When I saw this scene I knew I watching something special!

[MrRobustro]

1 person has got to be mentally retarded

[herbivore007]

[NataliaAnnF]

This was the perfect song for the timing and characterization of this film. Reminds us again, that this is supposed to be the 80's. Love this song... Great timing and choice : )

Ein Magischer Film!!!

[Steeched]

great fuckin movie

[whynotchill]

I think Barrymore overdid it a bit with this role, but then again it may be the script for her part I don't like. I dunno, this movie is still awesome.

[SkillingFTW]

Very bizarre.

[howsaboutno]

This scene makes me wish I could go back to school!

[haden9]

Drew Barrymore's best role ever!!!! I so loved her in this movie

[IcyScythe]

I LOVE when she tells her to sit next to the boy she thinks is the cutest. ROFLMAO I'd love to be in the room when a female teacher tells that to some girl. AWKWARD.

[silverplanetfilms]

Richard Kelly is a genius.

[devonpcole]

I love when Mrs. Farmer glares at that kid

[TheAmorri]

That gym teacher was a complete bitch :P

[tkeely4777]

I freaking love this movie, but I'm torn between the Director's Cut and the Original.

[MatthewBrawand]

Dude I wish I could get a teacher like this

[jdmcmillan77]

[neurodistortion]

The typical suburban school setting of the late 1980s, perfect scene.

[Cybernerd9000]

Why does this work so fuckin well?

[KalashnikovBoy94]

Ha, One of my favorite defying moments in film history. When the bully snorts that cocaine, it takes me back to 1988 when i was a senior.

Time Flys!

and the bassline at 0:40 is awesome.

[vior4ever]

@schwaabby hi. yes, Curt Smith, lead singer and bassist of TFF is great in playing bass...check out their songs and you'll find out how good he is as a bassist ;-). Try Pale Shelter or Start of a Breakdown for a starter ;-)
