Synopsis

In a small town, an auto mechanic named Benny is devoted to taking care of his mentally ill sister, Joon, who can barely function alone in the real world despite being a talented artist. This relatively stable situation is shaken up when Benny is obliged in a poker game to welcome another player’s relative, Sam, to his home for a few days. When Sam arrives, he quickly makes an impression with his quietly eccentric ways which emulate the antics of the great silent movie comedian, Buster Keaton. Without Benny’s full knowledge, Sam and Joon find themselves drawn to each other to the fullest degree. However when Benny finds out, it creates a rift in the siblings as they struggle to accept their relationship is profoundly changing with the presence of this odd newcomer. —IMDb

oh my, what wonderful & weird breakfasts they make... the sliding & "mam" in the clinic close to the end was so awesome. :D it's a very entertaining & lovely movie - Depp as street-comedian was pretty cool...

Quirky, fun, but not a perfect balance of comedy and pathos. Depp's performance turns this story into a really great film.

This is the only movie where mental disorders make a character "quirky", and it portrays a real consequence of messing with it.

This is a nice film with some great moments, but it doesn't amount to much. It oversells the quirkiness a bit.
