Summary of Benny and Joon
Johnny Depp (Sleepy Hollow) Mary Stuart Masterson (Bed of Roses) and Aidan Quinn (Practical Magic) star in this wonderfully unique and delightfully offbeat romantic comedy. Joon (Masterson) is a little unbalanced. Sometimes without warning her sweet nature gives way to odd behavior -- including a penchant for setting fires! She lives with her older brother Benny (Quinn) who has spent his life taking care of her since their parents died. One night while playing in a poker game with unusual stakes Joon loses her hand...and wins Sam (Depp) a whimsical misfit who soon charms his way into Joon's heart. Now if they can only find the perfect mate for her overprotective brother... With charm humor and an outstanding supporting cast that includes Oliver Platt (A Time to Kill) and Julianne Moore (Hannibal) Benny & Joon is the perfect movie for everyone.System Requirements: Running Time 98 MinFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY Rating: PG UPC: 027616857736 Manufacturer No: 1001453An oddball love story about a fey loner named Sam (Johnny Depp), who falls in love with the mentally unbalanced Joon (Mary Stuart Masterson), who lives in the care of her protective brother Benny (Aidan Quinn). This 1993 story is hard to swallow, with its message that love can conquer a brand of mental illness that manifests itself in pyromania: Joon has a bad habit of going a bit around the bend and setting fires, but Sam's tender care apparently has the cure for what ails her. Still, if you want proof that Depp has significant chops as a physical comedian, give this film a try: He does note-perfect renditions of slapstick routines made famous by Charlie Chaplin and Buster Keaton. --Marshall Fine
