Such a strange and jerky theory does not appeal to me

The translation of this film is misleading. In fact, the whole film is not an illusion before the protagonist's death, but a time and space shuttle structured by the director. The film runs through a book called "The Profound Meaning of Time and Space Shuttle". The basic theory is that during the development of our universe, an offline universe will be generated due to some unexpected circumstances. The offline universe is equivalent to a fork in the development of the universe and usually has a short lifespan. , Its end is when all things are destroyed. Therefore, after the protagonist of the film realizes that the universe has entered a divergence, through a series of complicated and obscure theories invented by the director, what is the recipient of the living body, the dead body, and so on, finally transmits a sacred object (aircraft engine) back to the original universe and sacrifices himself. End the bifurcation and continue the development of the original universe.

I think such a strange and jerky theory is not attractive to me, and the cost of the film is very small, and when I watch it, I feel confused and boring. My feeling is not very good. Although it is one of IMDB 250.

The protagonist of this film is Jack Gyllenhaal from Brokeback Mountain, and I don't like it very much either.

Donnie Darko quotes

  • [Pommeroy is reading to the class from the 1954 short story "The Destructors" by Graham Greene]

    Karen Pommeroy: "There would be headlines in the papers. Even the grown-up gangs who ran the betting at the all-in wrestling and the Barrow Boys would hear with respect of how Old Misery's house had been destroyed. It was as though this plan had been with him all his life, pondered through the seasons, now in his 15th year crystallized with the pain of puberty." What is Graham Greene trying to communicate with this passage? Why did the children break into Old Misery's House? Joanie?

    Joanie James: They wanted to rob him.

    Karen Pommeroy: Joanie, if you had actually read the short story, which, at a whopping 13 pages, would have kept you up all night, you would know that the children find a great deal of money in the mattress, but they burn it.

  • Gretchen: Um, where do I sit?

    Karen Pommeroy: Sit next to the boy you think is the cutest.

    [the class gasps]

    Karen Pommeroy: Quiet! Let her choose.
