    you all know you want to talk about it. I need questions answered. And answers questioned. I need to know what others think, cos here in Portumna, bog hole of Ireland, my sis and I are the only ones who watched it. So to talk about it I've to talk to you like-minded people.

    Why does Frank say sorry?

    BEST. MOVIE. EVAR!!!!

    i love this film. whoever has seen it, watch it again, then watch it again straight after. youll notice some REALLY freaky stuff that you took for granted as normal the first time.
    example: within the first few scenes, a red car drives by on the road in front of donnie. this seems perfectly normal..BUT! it is actually the same car donnie uses to drive over that other guy in.

    look out for, and take notice of EVERYTHING, you'll be surprised by what you find.

    Here's something a friend showed me that's very cool :)

    If he said sorry because he killed gretchen (which totally makes sense) then what did the bit with the mirror and knife have to do with anything??

    Frank is actually Donnie's Sister's Boyfriend (tying into your red car point).

    At the mirror knife bit Donnie stabs Frank in the eye, then later on he shoots him in the eye. I think it's just meant to foreshadow that Donnie would be the reason that Frank lost his eye.
