Plot
The film stars Liza Minnelli as the title character Junie Moon, a girl whose face is scarred in a vicious battery acid attack by her boyfriend (Ben Piazza). Later in an institution, she meets a man with epilepsy (Ken Howard), and a gay paraplegic who uses a wheelchair (Robert Moore). Disabled, but not down, they live together in an older, rented house and bond, determined to prove themselves and to help each other.

Release and legacy
Unlike Liza Minnelli's previous film, 1969's The Sterile Cuckoo, which was a triumph artistically and financially, as well as netting Minnelli an Oscar nomination as Best Actress, Tell Me That You Love Me, Junie Moon was a failure with critics and at the box office. Minnelli's next film two years later, Cabaret, would not only win her the Academy Award but also establish her as a superstar. Olive Films announced in 2016 that it would release the film on DVD and Blu-ray for the first time on August 16, 2016.
