or maybe dying in a dream, or just having a long dream of dying, and waking up in the middle of the road, riding a bicycle in pajamas, just like the scene of the opening. Going home, there is a note looking for him posted on the refrigerator door. His mother is stern and serious, and his father is a little nervous about making cold jokes. Then he eats with his family, quarrels with his mother, smokes secretly, and speaks genius things that make the teacher crazy in class. He smiled at the fat Chinese girl who had a crush on his earphones and chased that cool beautiful girl at a loss. Not a good child but still grows up healthy and normal. It's like a relaxing and soothing campus story. If you didn't meet Frank in the night and there was no dead mother-in-law, especially if you didn't have her, that was not a novel but a fictional story.
The place where this movie is bullish is here. You can think of it as a different story. According to me and the people around Donnie in the story, this is how Donnie is crazy. He is seeing some phantoms and talking nonsense. To be confused is to comprehend a little bit of the thought he wants to say. But I always wanted to figure it out, racking my brains to understand the "Time Travel Upanishad" by the dead mother, only to realize that dare to love this is science fiction.
Although I always tried to understand the plot like this subjectively at first, because our fascinated Jake Gyllenhaal is like that, with blue eyes and a smile like a slender sun, even if Donnie Darko in the story has a mental illness, he is rebellious, he sleepwalks, he smashes The school water pipe burned the movie screen, we still pay more attention to him jumping on the trampoline. He pityed his blushing chasing girl. He hugged the little bear and threw into the psychiatrist’s arms and wept like a child. After watching the movie ignorantly, I kept guessing or was the hallucination of paranoia. This heartbreaking teenager sank into the darkness a little bit, and finally died. Is it really to save his beloved girl or hallucination?
Mother-in-law's book opens up a new world. It turns out that every detail is a carefully arranged foreshadowing, every step has a hint, every dialogue has a clue, and everything is clear at the end. The appearance of Frank, the future man in the rabbit mask, is not Illusion, everything is actually going on on a designed orbit, just for the last night to make Donnie strong and clarify everything, and then save the original universe at the end of the world.
Really feel a kind of irony, maybe this movie is for people to watch twice.
Many people must be as sorry as I do for this paranoid teenager who has headaches. Those around him in the film are also like this. This Donnie is crazy. But except for Donnie and the dead mother-in-law who was ridiculed and abandoned by the world, everyone else had no idea about the danger of the facts.
People think that they are still alive. They are teaching and learning ridiculous theories about love and fear, and they are criticizing Donnie for fear and not love.
Donnie is a child after all, but even his girlfriend is asking him Are you ok? His responsibility is too great. He is so lonely, he will cry for help. But at the last moment he was brave and powerful, he was a hero who saved the earth.
In fact, the hero, no one calls him that. People just wake up in the morning and see that the disobedient child died last night, and then continue their hypocritical love and fear lessons after a while of grief. They don’t know that they came back from the future that night. , They didn't know that the boy who "only fears but not love" sacrificed himself and saved everyone.
This rebellious child once used vicious words about his mother, but he seemed to touch us so much. The night when he met Frank was dark and lonely, but many times, the white shirts of boys and the long hair of girls on the campus in the 1980s were jumping. The beautiful red name embroidered on the trampoline and the fat girl's purse, he blushed and talked to his beloved girl. He told the shy and stubborn fat girl that your life will be more beautiful one day. He told Drew Barrymore's beautiful female teacher that destruction is a creation. He told the psychiatrist that his dog walked on the stairs alone and waited to die before he died. Everyone died alone. Then he cried, and then he died alone, on the night when everything started.
How happy he was at that time, because he turned back the clock, his girlfriend no longer died, and her mother’s airplane engine failure was no longer dangerous, the original universe wouldn’t destroy everything, it’s okay, he can finally He was relieved. He smiled like a child and went to sleep. Did he know that the airplane engine would be as expected after two nights.
If he didn’t know how he was so happy, maybe as he said, when the end of the world comes, it’s still There are many things to look forward to, he is just leaving this so-called original universe. Donnie knows too much we don't know.
People only know some trances in their dreams. Donnie died at that time. Everyone lived their own night, dreaming different dreams, silent. Frank sat next to the rabbit mask, his right eye, which had been damaged by Donnie, became dark and deep again. The song of Mad World floated gently across everyone's bedroom, as if to hear the wisp of young and gorgeous soul passing by, and kissed everyone's forehead tenderly and kindly. Leave gently.
