Donnie (Jake Gyllenhaal) seemingly escapes death from a freak airplane crash. But in the grim ending, Donnie chooses to return to the reality where he (and no one else) dies. Seeing Jena Malone — who, in this timeline, never got to know him — pass his house as just a curious onlooker is devastating.
