Movie Description
Joon is a peculiar young woman overprotected by her older brother. Joon meets her match when she falls in love with a whimsical misfit, Sam. Sam is a dyslexic charmer obsessed with silent comedies. Together they prove the perfect mismatch.
Synopsis
Joon, a mentally disturbed young woman, lives with her older (and over-protective) brother Benny. He puts up with the untenable situation because of his love for her and his dislike of institutions. Just when their relationship reaches a point where things have to change, the soft-spoken Sam enters their lives and slowly begins a romance with the fragile Joon. His love proves to be just the therapy she needs -- and it finally gives the reclusive Benny, who hasn't even been able to commit to a second date, the chance to start a romance of his own.

Industry Reviews
"...Cheerfully conceived and presented with admirable restraint....There are times when [Depp] genuinely seems to become [Buster Keaton]..."
Maslin
"...Startling performances....Both Depp and Masterson, whose screen chemistry sparkles, excel in embodying the spirits of magic..."
Variety - Emanuel Levy (03/29/1993)
"...BENNY & JOON becomes genuinely touching -- a love story about separation anxiety....Quinn has the charisma of goodness..."
Entertainment Weekly - Owen Gleiberman (04/23/1993)
"...Depp pulls it off....Here, without ever explaining himself, he simply behaves sometimes in the real world in the way Keaton and Chaplin behaved in their movie worlds..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (04/16/1993)
"...[Quinn and Masterson] are persuasive..."
USA Today - Mike Clark (04/16/1993)
