Film: Donnie Darko

DonnieDarko
" you can never go too far."

Andrea and I watched Donnie Darko, a film about a troubled, intelligent boy, who's told the world will end in 28 days. We really liked this movie, because of how much it allowed us to think. Its one of the darkest movies we've seen, and it has so many layers. You can watch it over and over again& pick up something you missed, or make another connection that completely changes how you see the movie. That's part of what we like most about it; everyone gets something different when they first see it. It takes a lot of thinking, and maybe even research, to understand the movie. We looked up the director's cut, and various explanations, just to get a better idea of what it was supposed to be. Its one of the best movie's we've seen. It balances quirkiness with darkness.
