Benny and Joon FILMING LOCATIONS! Spokane, Washington movie locations.
We are in Spokane, Washington on a hunt for Benny and Joon Filming Locations. Spokane is the perfect setting for movie locations. Benny & Joon is a 1993 romantic comedy film released by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer about how two eccentric individuals, Sam (Johnny Depp) and Juniper "Joon" (Mary Stuart Masterson), find each other and fall in love. Aidan Quinn also stars, and it was directed by Jeremiah S. Chechik.
The film is perhaps best known for Depp's humorous physical comedy routines (which are based on silent film comics Buster Keaton, Charlie Chaplin, and Harold Lloyd) and for popularizing, in the United States, the song "I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers.[2] Benny & Joon was shot primarily on location in Spokane, Washington
The famous Diner scenes were shot at Ferguson's Diner in Spokane. Ferguson's has had a lot of makeovers since shooting but the counter is the same counter. Plus there are Benny and Joon movie posters and memorabilia on the walls. When at Ferguson's you must get the Benny and Joon Milkshake. It is ice-cream, peanut butter, and Captain Crunch cereal, just like Joon use to make.
We also make sure to go to Spokane's famous Riverfront Park to see Johnny Depp's famous hat trick our Buster Keaton routine.
We also go see Benny and Joon's house, Benny's friends house and the psychiatric ward that Joon is taken to in the movies finally.
