Donnie Darko is a thriller film which uses a lot of dark physiological effects to make the film interesting. In the film, a kid called Donnie Darko talks to an imaginary friend called Frank. This is a very weird moment as Frank is in a scary rabbit costume and so they use dramatic and spooky music to suit the scene. The lighting is also very dark when Donnie is talking to Frank. This adds to the tension of the conversation. The story of the film is sometimes hard to follow but by the end of the film you have a greater understanding of what the film was about. The music that is chosen suites the film very well as it fits the dramatic tension attached to the film. An example of this would be the song “Mad world” at the end of the film which suites the scene where Donnie has to let himself die in order to save others. Overall the film has a very interesting plot but it does not share this with you well until the end of the film where you truly understand what has happened.
