The film doesn’t really have a genre, as it deals with so many different kinds of elements – it has a bit of sci-fi, some time travel, some mystery, and more. At the film’s conclusion, Donnie ends up approaching a vortex signifying the end of the world. Donnie’s mom and sister are on a plane caught in a storm and it crashes. Donnie enters the vortex, goes back in time to when pieces of the plane crashed into his house. This time, he doesn’t exit, allowing the engine to crash into him and kill him. He resets the timeline and saves the lives of his family members."huh...so, instead of exposing child trafficking, he covers it up - and THAT'S supposed to be a (((happy ending))) 🤡While the ending of Donnie Darko has some dark implications, a deleted scene would have made the ending much less subtle and more gruesome. Filmmaker Richard Kelly initially captured a brief shot of Donnie, lying in his bedroom, still breathing and impaled by a piece of the plane. The shot emphasizes just how difficult Donnie’s sacrifice was, underlining the pain he went through to save everyone else.  It’s also a much more horrific ending than the one the film ended up with. The scene is too graphic for the rest of the film. While Donnie Darko definitely dealt with some mature subject matter, it didn’t feature anything as explicit as that final shot. It’s sad enough that Donnie sacrifices himself in the end. The deleted scene of him, lying in bed and dying, went a step too far.  Um...WAT  As I stated in the previous video, WAS 'DONNIE DARKO'  A PRE-EMPTIVE STRIKE AGAINST TONY ROBBINS BY THE ‍ (((HBM )))?!?, I believe that the underlying message of the film was a pre-emptive strike against Tony Robbins, in order to keep him from doing what Mel & company are doing ATM...?!?Reposting observations noted on subsequent viewings of DD:https://giama.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/the-philosophy-of-time-travel.pdf"Therapist – possibly for giving D placebos and not helping him better through therapy, (another one I’m not too sureon.)** "VfB's got yer SIX The entire enterprise of therapy is simply racketeering and allows for the (((homosexual banking mafia))) to ply their trade openly; if criminals weren't allowed the indulgence of (((seeing a therapist))) and having a 'legal' means to assuage guilt; this is essentially purchasing indulgences back in the dayThe date noted in The Philosophy of Time Travel is Graham Greene's birthday
