      Well it's pretty hard to be surrounded by something your whole life and know nothing about it unless you are an idiot that can't learn anything she must have had some interest in it herself though. Some is probably genetic though I remember when I wanted to learn embroidery and was immediately good at it and my Mom said well both your Grandmothers used to embroider it's in your blood.

    As a trial lawyer with 40 years of experience I can say that this is the most accurate portrayal of qualifying a witness as an expert witness. Watch the two clips together - qualifying her and then her "posa-traction" testimony is the single best way to teach young lawyers what they don't teach in law school - how to actually try a case. Vinny is -the most dead on accurate money ever made demonstrating the unpredictability of almost any trial. Unlike a movie, you can't script a trial.

She is wise , sexy, gorgeous and a brilliant woman in real life and as in the acting part of this movie . I love this movie character and her part as the girlfriend of Mr. Gambini . This was a great FUNNY movieand I absolutely loved it . I watched it several times and I still think it is hilarious and VERY well done . Joe Pesci.... anything he does he is like a rock star. HE is one of the best.

  • @DeeJayRoyalT2
    @DeeJayRoyalT2 Před 5 lety +97

    Aww man the beginning cuts off one of my favorite lines. Throughout the whole movie Fred Gwynne's character is serious and stern, but he has ONE LINE that even gets him to kinda smile. It's after Vinny has Mona Lisa Vito brought to the witness stand. She's refusing to talk to him so he asks the judge if he can treat her as a "hostile witness". She answers "If you think THIS is hostile just wait until tonight". Then the judge asks "Do you two know each other?" and Vinny says "Yeah, she's my fiancee'". Then the judge says "Well, that would explain the HOSTILITY" and he kinda grins. IDK why but I love that part. Maybe bcuz I get the feeling he got a kick outa saying it. It's his only non-serious line in the movie :)

    • @georgeemil3618

      Mr. Gwynne was actually a damn good actor. I remember this, Pet Sematary ( why did they spell cemetery, "sematary"?) and The Secret of my Success were roles he played at the very end of his career. Car 54 was pretty funny, and of course the Munsters where he was great and funny as hell! I imagine he was a pretty laid back and kind man. He is missed, but he is remembered fondly.
