We look at Benny & Joon (1993), an unorthodox romantic comedy about an quirky, illiterate man who gets gambled away by his family, and falls for an equally quirky woman living with mental illness. It's a film plagued by a lack of mental health understanding, but at its core it's a sweet romance between Sam and Joon. Also, Benny is there.
