  Unraveling Donnie's mystery Before I start raving about the peace protests that went on yesterday all over the world, I will just start with a lighter subject; Yesterday I bought the Donnie Darko DVD.
Yes, its true. I shelled out some 20 Euros (at this moment its the equivalent of about 23 dollars, since the Euro went up) and bought me the DTS Special Edition supposedly loaded with extras. Ever since I discussed the movie on Feb. 3rd, I couldnt help being (and staying) very mesmerized by it. There was another coincidence that I didnt mention here yet. When I gave the movie to my colleague to watch it, the next day when he gave it back to me, he showed me something really funny; As it turned out he had a newspaper clipping with him from that very same day, discussing the DTS Special Edition of Donnie Darko. Weird huh? Remember this movie came out in 2001. The odds of a newspaper writing about it in 2003 are very small!
Anyway, it was a very positive critique about the movie but very negative about the extras on the DVD. In fact it said it spoiled the mystery of the movie. I didnt have time yet to watch all of it with the directors commentary on, but I did watch the deleted scenes already. One of them is rather unveiling; its a short sequence that shows that the medication Donnie is taking is actually a placebo. As soon as I get time I will get back on this issue, but its fascinating already to watch these deleted scenes (with the directors commentary).
