Line 4:
In the 1993 film '''''Benny & Joon''''', a mentally-ill young woman finds her love in an eccentric man who models himself after [[Buster Keaton]].
 
Joon is smart, creative and pretty—andpretty -- and severely schizophrenic. She lives together with her protective brother Benny. When Joon "wins" the eccentric, mentally disabled Sam (Johnny Depp) during a poker game, Benny reluctantly agrees to let Sam stay with them for a while.
 
Sam and Joon inevitably fall in love, and as they try to set up a life together, the darker side of Joon's schizophrenia comes to light. Still, Sam refuses to give up, despite Benny flat-out telling him that Joon would never be fit for an adult relationship.
