Benny and Joon

Has anyone seen this movie? I just bought it last week and I've watched it three times. It's an amazing movie! It stars Mary Stuart Masterson as Joon, Aidan Quinn as Benny, and JOHNNY DEPP as Sam. Joon is mentally ill and Benny is her overprotective older brother who takes care of her. Then Sam comes along and... it's just a truly amazing movie!!

Then again, you can't go too wrong with Johnny Depp, can you? (That's the lame 12 year old girl coming out in me..:rolleyes: )

:duh: and in me too Poobs...I love Johnny Depp...not his political standpoint...but he's still good to look at. We can always duct-tape his mouth shut, right....hahaa.

That is such a cute movie....he looks absolutely adorable in that movie. I love alot of the 80's movies....;)

Too true.. every movie featuring Johnny Depp is badass. He's such an awesome actor, and definitely quite a looker. You never can go wrong with him. Nope, never. And in this movie he's just TOO CUTE and so kick ass!! Man, if I met someone like Sam I would be in love.
