I watched this film for two years-from 10 o'clock in the evening on the last day of January 2005 to 12 o'clock in the morning on the first day of 2006. It made me feel cold and confused. I lay in bed that night thinking about this movie for a long time, but it took a long time before I fell asleep. This is probably what fascinates me the most: it is not the kind of film that is finished after watching it. It will stay very old in your mind and make you memorable. This may be because the scene is more complicated and weird. The movie involves a lot of physical and psychological related content, which makes people have to check a lot of information. And the film has too much blank space for people to discuss. On the forum set up by imdb for the film, people will ask a lot of questions from time to time. For different audiences, their understanding of movies may also be different. To a large extent, it does not have a standard answer. I now wonder if I am also a bit stuck in it. After watching the movie, I checked a lot of information to find answers. Its official website is worth a look, and you may find some answers in it. ( Http://www.donniedarko.com/ )
Another reason to like Donnie Darko is because of its poetry. This makes it completely different from those silly psychological suspense films, science fiction thrillers and so on. Both the scene and the music are handled very beautifully, even a little bit sentimental. A little bit like youth slowly passing away, seemingly simple but complicated, and there is too much helplessness in the hustle and bustle.
