To focus on the symbolisms within a text...
The Rabbit which occurs throughout the film “Donnie Darko” is a surprisingly scary feature of the film. Rabbits, to most people would be thought of as a fluffy cute animal, known as a pet for children. An innocent child’s mind would be unable to think of such a horrible creature. Doing so would suggest to us that the child could be experiencing some problems occurring in the mind and seen by many members of the audience as mentally unstable. “Frank” (the bunny rabbit) could symbolise the mentally traumatic childhood which Donnie Darko has experienced to be on the pills, which are displayed, as being so important in the film.
