This movie is so legally accurate when it comes to procedure that law schools use it in class. I was once at a party with a bunch of lawyers I didn't know. I was in a legal conversation with them and keeping up pretty good. One of the guys thought I was an attorney and tried to headhunt me. I was flattered but I laughed and said, "I'm not a lawyer, I've just seen my cousin Vinnie a bunch." I golf with those guys once a month now.

That is so true. When I went to college in Boston I got a cheap apartment next to a fire station. It was very common at ALL hours the trucks went out. When I finished school and moved to the suburbs I had to leave the lights and tv on because it was too quiet to sleep. It took a year before I adjusted.

It's completely natural for the actor playing the Judge to have been so wonderful: He was the late, great Fred Gwynne, most famous for playing Herman Munster in the 1960s tv series "The Munsters", but who also was a regular on "Car 64 Where Are you?", as well as a host of tv, movie and theater credits. He completely understood the value of the under-play, the slow burn, and the building of relationships and tensions with his fellow actors. He was also an author of childrens' books, including a book of puns, "The King Who Rained".

Vinnie tipped the prison guard because he's from New York City, where it is common to tip for services...but never in prison. 😅😅😅

The scene where Pesci knocks over the chess set was not acting, he actually accidently knocked over the set during filming the scene and they decided to keep it in. Another fun fact, they actually view and discuss this film in classrooms at law schools.

The judge (Fred Gwynn) was, unfortunately, typecast after he played Herman Munster on ''The Munsters'' back in the 1960's.

[@michaelparham1328]

God I hope you read this. It's not entirely a comedy, but the comedy in it is top notch, and well balanced with its other categories Tremors is a 1990 horror\thriller\comedy starring Kevin Bacon, and Fred Ward. Ever heard of it? If not, don't feel bad. It only adds to its underratedness. If we're talking about underrated movies, this deserves its own category. It did poorly in the box office, but VHS sales and rentals made it clear that it had a thriving fan base, and that doesn't even scratch the surface of how underrated it is. It's taught in film schools as a perfectly crafted movie. Every scene does something to further character development or plot.

Even the witnesses were just mistaken, not intentionally lying. Usually writers take the easy way out and make the antagonists evil villains that one-deminsionally live only to cause the protagonist pain. But... get that girl a better mic and/or encourage her to speak up, it's difficult to hear her.

Not many times in the past 60 years, u can say, this person deserves the Oscar. Marissa did!

I love the part where the prosecutor asks Lisa about the timing, because you just know that he's asking her what timing he should use for his project car. Back in the day, this was a very common thing that guys would call each other and ask about.

Marisa Tomei Won the the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for her role.

Definetly should watch The Heartbreak Kid. Funny movie and Easy Money with Rodney Dangerfield.The judge is most famous for playing Herman Munster and in Car 54 Where Are You. Two classic tv series.Two of my favorite parts in this movie is first when the public defender is addressing the jury, in the background the reactions from Vinny's table are hilarious. Second, when he finally calls Mr. Tipton's name and the look Tipton gives him is absolutely priceless. Cracks me up every time.$200 in twenties would be more that half the size of that roll that guy is presenting, that's how Vinny knew right away he was scamming. One of the all time great comedies. Lastly no one was really a bad person, just doing their jobs and they immediately drop the charges when the truth comes out.

Some very funny comedies I enjoyed from that era are....What About Bob?, Liar Liar, The Waterboy, Sleepless in Seattle, Best in Show, Office Space, Rushmore, The Wedding Singer, Kingpin, Captain Ron and there's something about Mary.

Yeah, that's a Screech Owl.

5:50 "Why'd he pay the cop..."? 'Cause he's a New Yorker. Tip everybody. Do dry cleaners get tipped? 'You're uncertain? Tip him.

Yes, it's a screech owl and they are loud. My home town had a 'get up' whistle. And Melissa won an Oscar for her role here. Such a great movie - great review.

[@DodgerBlueRobert]

One of the best comedies of all time. This movie is an absolute classic and will never get old. Great reaction.

[@FallingPig]

The owl is a bit exaggerated but barn owls called screech owls do in fact make high pitch screeches.

[@FallingPig]

Barn owl and screech are in fact two different types. The sound is more barn owl but the one show looks like a different type.

This is a quote fest interrupted by a court trial and grits. Absolutely hilarious. And my clock is tickin' like this!
