Xixox pretty much covered most of what I was going to say - I too have the DVD as it's one of my favorite movies.
There are a lot of relgious overtones as well. In the deleted scenes you find out outright what was only hinted at in the final cut, that Frank is a messenger from God. You will also take notice that the other movie playing at the theatre when he leaves to bun down the motivational speaker's house is "The Last Temptation of Christ."
Donnie is the oft-used (at least in literature) Christ-figure.
