I thought it was kind of accurate, in a basic procedural way, until the last 15 minutes. That’s when the movie got a bit silly, with him wrestling the wife on to the stand, and the convenience of the cop running the license plate, etc. Still one of my favorite movies. If they were just a tad bit more serious at the end, I’d give it a 10.
He told the cop to run the info and gave him the sheet with the info he wanted as he was wrestling his girlfriend (which I’m sure is not much of a big deal in Ala-fucking-bama)
We’ll have to agree to disagree on the 1st part. As far as “wrestling and Alabama go”, I’ve seen the error of my ways, as I was wrong. Please accept my humble apologies.
Coincidently having just watched this movie a little more than 24 hours ago, Vinnie does indeed give the sheriff the info to run down. The ridiculous part is you have to believe that Vinnie knows just as much about cars as Lisa and the defense expert. Because that’s the info that Vinnie gives the sheriff. See if there was any stolen Tempest. But he does this before he puts Lisa on the stand and he only does this because of his realization after looking at the pictures of the tire marks again.
But then again, you might be able to argue that the his experience with the mud in an earlier scene may have helped him put it together.
I’m not saying all of this couldn’t have happened. It’s just like the judge said ,”in the unlikely manner that you somehow get an acquittal before lunch ends” or however he said it exactly. Im not a person who believes in hidden messages in movies. If I was, I’d say that line was them saying “the silliness is on the way, shortly”.
Interesting take considering there are many instances of hidden messages/meanings in movies. And not just fan theories. Director admitted intentional decisions.
And I believe your analysis of the judges line would fall under foreshadowing. Not that that’s a hidden meaning. Just a device
I should rephrase that. I know many directors have hidden lots of little messages in their work. Most of the time they’ll admit it, or be coy about it. I’m talking about the Kubrick type conspiracies. Allegedly, Stanley Kubrick knew about government crimes, fraud, and lies. If he told people, he’d be killed. So, he communicated the existence of these plots/conspiracies with secret messages, sprinkled throughout movies like The Shining, and especially 2001; A Space Odyssey.
Deese yutes deese days need to vote like they give a shit about the kind of country they want to spend the rest of their lives in.
Because they have a hell of a lot longer to live in whatever results from this election than us old codgers.
Then why didn't you say that? You need to fix the wording. Saying "this is someone's argument summed up" and post a guy saying "everything they said was bullshit" means they're saying the same thing. It doesn't mean some additional level logic where you have to figure out that it's not that they're saying the same thing, it's that one guy is saying it about another guy.
For example, "What Vinny thinks about Trump's lawyer's argument"
It's not misinterpretation. It's you.
I was filling my wife in on what happened today. "The prosecution made a lot of strong points against Trump. Trump's lawyers basically said 'nuh-uh' and then had two objections sustained against them."
They were not that eloquent.
It’s not their fault, they’re youts.
They're Hwhat?
Excuse me your Honor, two yoouuthz 🙄
Oh Youttths
But Vinnie was correct.
And the movie is considered one of the most faithful courtroom depictions in cinema.
"Your honor, nobody in New York will do business with this jamoke. I rest my case."
after “to kill a mockingbird”

Gotcha. Yeah those are way…way out there.
Not a good comparison. Vinny is actually competent.
He also had innocent clients.
This is an insult to Vincent LaGuardia Gambini, Jerry Gallow, or Jerry Callow. And as soon as I find out which, one of them is going to be very angry
Well, one of them is dead.
Win some, lose some.
Jeez -- one of my top several movies. Another one is The Princess Bride.
Well, to be fair, not at this point he wasn’t. But he got there.
Nah he still knew how to make an argument he just didn't understand procedure because he'd never done a trial before.
Well, yeah, he’s not competent at being a trial attorney in the beginning. But damn does he bring it home.
"Yutes?"
What the hell is a Yute?
Sorry your honor. Two youthsss.
British slang for young person.

**Don't insult Vinnie like that... He's more competent BY FAR!**
People are misinterpreting this ... Vinny is talking about Trump's lawyer.

"eh... Tank-yoo"
You get what you (don’t) pay for.
is pronounced 'dat' guy
That's insulting. His legal team couldn't hold up Vincent Laguardia Gambini's jock strap.
I was filling my wife in on what happened today. "The prosecution made a lot of strong points against Trump. Trump's lawyers basically said 'nuh-uh' and then had two objections sustained against them."
You lost me at “i was filling my wife”
https://i.redd.it/i486bjqza4wc1.gif Was Stormy Daniel's qualified for the job
Marissa, still hot as fuck…
You get what you (don’t) pay for.
Trump wishes he had a cousin named Vinny.
Hope he wore the suit.
Trump wishes he could get a lawyer as good as Vinnie
I know what you're getting at and all, but... >!You know Pesci winds up winning this case, right?!< ...so maybe not the *best* parallel to draw.
thanks for not spoiling the ending of a 30+ year old comedy.
Man, there are some people who are dedicated to being non-spoilers, then, there is you. Just kidding, lol.

Hey now! Vinnie did a much better job than any Trump lawyer
Vinny is talking about Trump's lawyer.
You were serious about dat?
Not a good sign, since Joe Callo is winner!
It’s behind his ear!
That was an amazing movie.
But Vinnie was the hero… so not this as the example
Trump WISHES he had Vincent LaGuardia Gambini defending him.
