My Cousin Vinny
My Cousin Vinny
Two carefree pals from Brooklyn traveling through rural Alabama on their way back to college are mistakenly arrested, and charged with murder. Fortunately, one of them has a cousin who's a lawyer - Vincent Gambini, a former auto mechanic from Brooklyn who just passed his bar exam after his sixth try. When he arrives with his leather-clad girlfriend, to try his first case, it's a real shock - for him and the Deep South!

Okay. So let me get this straight.
I show up in Alabama — wearin’ the wrong suit, talkin’ like a normal human bein’ — and suddenly I’m the idiot?
Two yoots are facin’ murder charges, the prosecution’s buildin’ a case on tire marks and tuna sandwiches, and I’m supposed to say “yes, Your Honor” and blend in like I wasn’t born with volume.
Listen — I didn’t go to law school to be polite.
I went to win.
You want legal drama? Go watch somethin’ with violins.
You want justice, comedy, and a woman screamin’ about positraction in heels?
This is the movie.
Case closed.
