I don't understand but a little touched

In 2008, I was about to officially enter the Water Cube to begin volunteer work for the Olympics. I chose this movie inexplicably, and then tried to brag to the girl I liked, but found that I didn’t understand it at all. However, the touch of the movie made me unforgettable for a long time. The male protagonist chooses to give up life again, and the female protagonist does not have to face the fate of death. In addition, the ending song Mad World happened to be covered by Asang, and it became the most commonly used background music for my experiments.
After reading it again after many years, I still can't understand... This time it seems that the screenwriter provides a theory of time and space travel through the role of the extinction teacher in the film, and then the protagonist is just smart enough to understand his own situation according to this. Because he already has mental problems, he and his family are smart enough and like to read. He has a dad who sees through the world and an older sister who goes to Harvard. But is this theory true or false compared to the scene set in the film? There are too many plots that are actually a reflection of psychological problems. The protagonist may be driven by psychological cues to obtain various illusions, but some things are indeed reversed on the time axis. So there are not enough clues to analyze the true and false, and it is too tiring.
So the main impression is still the music and the slow-moving plot, especially the static appearance of the last few characters. Although I don't understand, there is always a feeling of love, and it is like entering a kind of poetry.
Finally, I have to say that the heroine is very brilliant. The hero’s eyes are so good that the name of Donnie has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. While showing the charm of the flower season, the heroine keeps showing the essence of madness, and will play with her later. Joanna's Hunger Games is really in the same line.

    A directorial debut, who was only 25 years old at the time, is definitely worthy of praise, even if he didn't have any good works afterwards. If it is the director's cut version, it should not be as difficult to understand as expected, but it is definitely not a film that can be easily read. The Mad World at the end of the film can really reflect the mood of the film, a sad story of a teenager. ps, there are countless acquaintances in the film~★★★★
