I'm not clever enough to figure it out but........

Rating: 10/10 (4 April 2007)

I'd watched this film a couple of years ago and never thought much of it. Like another IMDb user states I just thought this was a weird film just for the sake of being weird.
In the last four months I have maybe watched it another 20 times, at first out of boredom and then because it dazzled me so much. I like this film so much because I don't get it. I'm not as smart as some of the users of this site so I haven't completely figured it out but I'm certainly working on it. Reading some of the FAQ's hs helped me and I'm going to look into it even more.
There are some scenes that seem so powerful and I don't really know why. The scenewhere Jim Cunningham is talking to the school children and Donnie calls him the anti-Christ, the scene where the dance-troup are performing at the talent contest, the scene where donnie tells cherita that its all gonna be OK in the future etc etc.
What an unbelievable and inspirational film, I can't wait to read more into it and uncover the depths that I currently don't understand.
