Benny and joon

i'm sure this is one of those movies that was a gem at the time, but i didn't see it when it came out, so i don't have nostalgia-colored glasses on.  its a pretty basic movie with the only interesting part being the 'quirky' performance by johnny depp.  since we have now come to understand that that's the only sort of performance he gives, it certainly dulls the sheen of this one...
