Otto Preminger's "Tell Me That You Love Me, Junie Moon" is about three gallant, self-styled "freaks" who set up housekeeping together in a broken-down bungalow that comes complete with a banyan tree in the backyard, a hoot owl in the banyan tree, a Peeping Tom next door, and a rich, spooky landlady who dresses like a World War I ace in leather helmet, leather jacket, tinted goggles and long, flowing scarf.
Junie Moon's face has been disfigured , and she depends on her friends and her wit to cope.
She, Warren, and Arthur leave the hospital - they yearn for independence - and find a house to live in.
Together they stumble into adventures involving the local fish vendor, nosy neighbours, surreptitious vacations, love, and frustration in finding jobs as they face subtle prejudices in their community, and their own particular medical problems.
An all but forgotten curiosity from Liza's film resume, sandwiched between the reasonably well known "The Sterile Cuckoo (1969)" and her massive hit "Cabaret (1972)".
There has never been an official DVD or VHS release of this film as far as I know.
