Short description

A mentally ill young woman finds her love in an eccentric man who models himself after Buster Keaton.

What's left behind the scenes

The house where Benny and June lived was rented specifically for the filming, and its owners were paid for accommodation in a hotel during that period.
Winona Ryder was approved for the role of June, and at that time she was dating Johnny Depp. However, Ryder and Depp broke up, and the actress refused to star in the film.
