Benny & Joon

Benny & Joon is a 1993 romantic comedy film about how two misfits, Sam (Johnny Depp) and Juniper/Joon (Mary Stuart Masterson), find each other and fall in love. Sam You know, it seems to me that, I mean, except for being a little mentally ill, she's pretty normal. Oh, oh Benny, hey Benny, thanks for the couch... um Mike made me sleep under the sink. Mommy? Ruthie, do you got any avocados? Joon Some cultures are defined by their relationship to cheese. Don't underestimate the mentally ill. We know how to count. Having a Boo Radley moment, are we? Benny I am serious. I'm always serious. I'm too serious. You can't bet a human being! Dialogue Sam: You don't like raisins? Joon: Not really. Sam: Why? Joon: They used to be fat and juicy and now they're twisted. They had their lives stolen. Well, they taste sweet, but really they're just humiliated grapes. I can't say I am a big supporter of the raisin council. Sam: Did you see those, those raisins on TV? The ones that sing and dance and stuff? Joon: They scare me. Sam: Yeah me too. Joon: It's sick. The commercial people they make them sing and dance so people will eat them. Sam: It's a shame about raisins. Joon: You're out of your tree. Sam: It's not my tree. Joon: We have to tell him. Benny: What? Tell me what? Sam: Uh, Benny, Joon and uh and I are uh... you know. Benny: Hi, I'm Benny Sam: With an N? Benny: Yeah. Two of them. And this is Joon. Sam: With an N? Joon: One.
