The Darwin Awards is a comedy film based on the website of the same name.
Written and directed by Finn Taylor, the film premiered January 25, 2006, at the Sundance Film Festival. The film features Joseph Fiennes, Winona Ryder, David Arquette, Juliette Lewis, Wilmer Valderrama, Chris Penn, Julianna Margulies, Robin Tunney, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Brad Hunt, Adam Savage, Jamie Hyneman and Metallica. This was Chris Penn's last movie before his death on January 24, 2006, the day before the movie's premiere. The film includes several full and partial re-enactments of "Darwin Awards", most of which are actually urban legends, most notably the debunked JATO Rocket Car story.
Joseph Fiennes stars as Michael Burrows, a detective hired pro tempore by an insurance company to profile Darwin Award candidates who accidentally kill themselves, in order to save the insurance company's money.
Winona Ryder plays Siri, a work-hardened yet sweetly authentic insurance investigator working with Burrows.
