in the scene at the movies (when frank drops by), i think that the doors are roughly shaped as frank's mask. for anyone who can tell me if that was just my imagination or a little teaser/hidden teaser, that would be cool...

As a Richard Kelly Fan, I can say that this film should have been released in its Director's Cut form. The Director's Cut has more explanatory meaning. But I first saw it on the Theatrical DVD. I thought it was incredibly moving. So original. And by far my number one favorite film of all time. I enjoyed everyone's performance. I found no flaws. And Its story was confusing at first? But the more you read and watch about it...The more you become obsessed with Time Travel and science. Incredibly delightful film. I love DONNIE DARKO! But why, would they try and make the crappy sequel? It did nothing but terminate Richard Kelly's dignity.

Absolutely Loved it!
I saw it a few years ago, but I didn't understand most of it then...
Now, it was much clearer to me and I will change my opinion on it!
Two Thumbs up!
5 Stars out of 5!!!

Excerpt

Donnie Darko is an unclassifiable but stunningly original film that obliterates the walls between teen comedy, science fiction, family drama, horror, and cultural satire – and remains wildly entertaining throughout.
