One of my favourite movie moments ever

@monsterinyourpocket I've always been confused by "but keeps the money inside the wallet." Does that mean she kept the money inside the wallet when she returned it, or she kept the money from inside the wallet as in stole it? The "but" always made me think she stole it, but it was worded strangely. I'm probably just stupid :P And yes, after seeing this movie as an adult I feel like he didn't have a valid argument. Just a bratty teenager. Maybe that was the real gist of his character.

@monsterinyourpocket NO! This is about the fact you can not relate fear and love to morals. You may not feel fear of having nothing and still be greedy. Most rich people are BTW more greedy than poor people.

@monsterinyourpocket good point! I loved this film too but its evident to anyone who can critically think, can see that this subplot to the film is poison. As characters created in the film that spread an understanding of fear and love are sickos. Giving justification to 'shoot the messenger' which in turn demonises the theories' credability due to character assassination and fictional corruption.

"at 9 years old i thought it was ok for my son to wet the bed" (disguises laugh as cough)

That depends if you want to apply a 2d moral system to emotion, which is a complex 3d explosion that I wouldn't say would be measured so simplistically.

@monsterinyourpocket That wasn't the point. He said he knew what to do, and yeah, he was wrong about the wallet thing, but everything isn't categorized into those 2 subjects

This scene always bothered me. I love this movie but Donnie contradicts himself. From fear to love IS the spectrum of human emotion. .Ling-ling took the money because she was being greedy. Greed comes from the fact you feel you don't have enough.And That feeling comes from the fear of losing what you already have. But the teacher is still a bitch.
