Donne Darko, set design correspondence #10

A CAR – TRAVEL, CONFRONTATION, A MACHINE -MATT
——————–
for some reason this makes me think of a car as a time machine – marcus

THERAPY – A POINT OF VIEW – A FRAME – AN EXAMINATION – A LOOK IN THE MICROSCOPE -MATT
——————————
in a way i think of donnie’s therapy with thurman as a home base, the only person who can listen, who can really hear what he’s saying; it’s a place of safety. even if he’s too afraid to fully let down his guard, he lets it down more with Thurman than almost anyone else… it’s a private moment of safety, dignity, respect and it’s scary to go back outside, and it’s sometimes scary to take the journey that’s being asked for in Thurman’s office -marcus

A BATHROOM – FLOOD – DESTRUCTION – THE WAY – A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION -MATT

not sure how to do that, but i’d be nice. i also like the idea of a bathroom in the house and having scenes in donnie’s house’s bathroom – marcus

A HOUSE – FIRE – DESTRUCTION – THE WAY – A STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION -MATT

a step in the right direction is interesting, might be nice if we could get a sense of connecting the dots and how these events are necessary and connected as donnie pieces things together. -marcus
