[neverending]

I also don't understand calling Donnie Darko a sci-fi movie. Is it because a jet engine falls on their house? I don't get it.

I agree with urge that Darko would speak to a lot of people of a certain age and outlook. I think works of art- and I believe movies, even the most crassly commercial- can be called works of art- can be a deciding factor in helping someone make a realization, or come upon some truth that becomes important to them.

Donnie Darko is a very, very good movie, imo, and I can see how it would be a important to some people.
