Re: Donnie Darko explained

this is the best explanation i've read on the net so far, and i agree with almost all of it. great piece of writing!
what is bothering me is, why doesn't donnie recognize frank? he must know him--frank is his sister's boyfriend, they went to the same school (although frank is gretchen's age), he was at the halloween party, however briefly...for some reason, this bugs me. he would have to know him, wouldn't he? and when donnie's psychiatrist asks his parents if they have heard of a "frank", they say no...do they not know who their daughter's boyfriend is, even though she is on the phone telling him that the reason she skipped college for the semester was partly for him?? i know there must be some easy answer to this, and maybe it doesn't even matter...but it just bothers me. like, if seth was the bunny...would it make a difference?
i'm rambling...HELP ME!!! lol...
again, excellent interpretation...i'm with ya...
