Does anybody else love that movie? 'The two yutes' 'What's a yute?' LOVE that, my brother and I are always doing that, and 'The p-p-p-p-p*spit*prosecution' Priceless!

It was OK. I don't think I'll ever understand how Marisa Tomei won the Oscar. I'm not even talking about the urban legend that Jack Palance said the wrong name. I just don't think there was all that much acting involved.

It was a good enough movie but Marisa Tomei's Oscar win for it still stuns me. Likable in the role but Oscar caliber? I don't think so.

^^I love this movie but agree there was nothing Oscar caliber about it. It was just a very enjoyable movie.

Another one I love is when he's looking at the pictures Lisa took and he goes 'were you in a tree?' and 'you got it! You cracked the case! It's me in the shower!' I don't know if it's WHAT he says or HOW he says it but it's just hilarious.

I own it. Joe Pesci can do both comedic and dramatic roles. And yeah, Tomei didn't deserve an Oscar for them.

Supporting Actress:
MARISA TOMEI in "My Cousin Vinny", Judy Davis in "Husbands and Wives", Joan Plowright in "Enchanted April", Vanessa Redgrave in "Howards End", Miranda Richardson in "Damage"

I can say that I have not seen ANY of the other movies that were nominated when she was. I can't stand Judy Davis tho... she looks so fake.. like she had some weird surgery that got botched! lol
