I have two. One is when Judge Haylor says to Vinny, "Are you on drugs?" and Vinny says, "No. I don't take drugs." My most favorite moment, however, is when they are on the porch and Lisa says, "You said you got married after you won your first case. Meanwhile, ten years later my niece, the daughter of my sister, is getting married. My biological clock is ticking like this (and stomps her foot) and the way this case is going I ain't never getting married!" Vinny, who's had too much stress at this point, just flips out.
What's your favorite "My Cousin Vinny" moment and why?

All time fave scene is when they are in the court room and Vinny says to the judge, "the two Yutes (youths)" and the judge says did you just say YUTES..lol i laugh every time i think of the movie, just cuz of that scene. The other that stands out, is when Vinny is looking at the photos that Lisa took and they are of him in the shower and he says "omg you broke the case right open how can i ever thank you" Great movie, great laughs, thanks for starting the discussion.

hi friend,
I can watch this film over and over again. Joe Pesci plays Vincent LaGuardia Gambini, a Brooklyn lawyer who is asked to defend his cousin and friend from a murder charge in Alabama. Marisa Tomei as Mona Lisa Vito, Vinny's girlfriend, deserved the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, rare for a comedy to even be nominated for anything by AMPAS. I really liked Fred Gwynne as the no-nonsense Judge Chamberlain Haller, a great foil for Joe Pesci's laid back, easy going Brooklyn wise guy. Even his name, Chamberlain Haller, evokes seriousness. A lot of fun, especially the courtroom antics of Pesci. Highly recommended.
