My dad was taking a law class. There was a car crash outside. Professor, a lawyer calmly walked to the window,, tossed his card, and kept on teaching.
LOLLLLL
I'm a Firefighter, a while back we were working a car accident. A lady who had nothing to do with the scene or accident was running around acting hysterical, trying to get info on what happened. P.D. and we were all telling her to shut up and mind her business. One of the victims was on the stretcher and about to be loaded to the ambulance. She then ran up the patient on the stretcher crying (keep in mind she doesn't know them) and acted like she was hugging them and trying to recite some Prayer to them. We then saw she slipped something in the patient's pocket. It was a card to an attorney. She was just trying to solicite
The prosecutor was the coach of the hawks in mighty ducks
Probable cause translation just saying "I smelled something."
Yay! Finally! Love this movie and Marisa Tomei steals every scene. She totally deserved that Oscar, in my opinion.
omg an absolute star
@@LeejaMiller What about reacting to The Client or A Few Good Men or...there's so many? Gah.
Marisa Tomei is pure gold here! One of the few movies we've both seen and love her character
100%! All those people saying she didn't deserve it have no idea what the heck they're talking about
Marissa stole this damn movie! It’s a fun and enjoyable film but her performance completely rips the rug out from under you. I don’t know if the filmmakers knew what they had in her character and her performance but it was gold, and she earned gold for it. I’ve heard film critics over the years say that her win was undeserved, they clearly have not watched the damn movie!
Amen!!!
Only one of those stereotypically joyless, crusty old critics would take that position. She played her part perfectly. What should have been a completely cringy and unwatchable character became absolutely endearing and powerful thanks to Ms. Tomei. I love Pesci, but she stole the movie, no question. “How’s your Chinese food?” 😂
Marisa really deserved that award - her performance was A1
Of course Texas outnumbered Alabama 😮
Not to mention she looks absolutely dynamite in this film.
She may not be my lawyer (and nothing she says is my personalized legal advice) but she is still my favorite lawyer to hang out and watch movies with lmao
Are you hinting at a possible live watch party? :3 haha
@@LeejaMiller Please consider the 1950s Witness for the Prosecution (later versions aren’t as fun). recommend not looking it up ahead, as it’s by Agatha Christie so there’s murder afoot!
@@LeejaMiller are all lawyers woketards?
@@LeejaMiller wwaawaaawwwwwaaw
As a translator who does a lot of legal translation, can confirm that lawyers apparently just write whatever the heck they want in contracts.
I've been in contracts work for a few years now and they mostly seem to just throw a bunch of case-tested boilerplate together. In fact you'll often see the exact same handful of contract templates over and over where the only difference is the counterparty and the effective date.
I've seen contracts going as far back as the 1960s and you can track the progression of boilerplate added over the decades as Legal adds layer after layer of CYA language in response to emerging case law, ballooning volume of statutes and regulations, adverse rulings, etc.; so by the time the 2010s rolls around, a subject matter that could once be covered by 5 pages had ballooned into 100 or more pages to address the burgeoning number legal pitfalls the client can fall into.
It's rather a shame you didn't comment on the scene when Pesci cross-exams the first witness. As a law student, I'm fascinated by how Pesci sets a trap for the guy that had grits for breakfast, then guides him right into it. Still, it's a great reaction video and I'll be sure to watch more :)
thanks for watching!!
I love how Joe Pesci cross examined those witnesses, making their testimony null and void. He was terrific and very funny !
Great video. My only recollection was that Ms. Vito was being called as an expert on "general automobile knowledge" ("all my brothers were mechanics..."). She was basically used to cast doubt on the Prosecution's theory, which is then validated by the qualified expert. I loved the way Vinny sort of "owned" the case after that moment. He then took one final Coup de Grace when he called the Sherrif to the stand to confirm that the real culprits were aprehended in another county which basically forced the Prosecutor to drop the charges. One of my favourite "legal" films.
My sweetie is a Superior Court Judge. We watched this together & loved it! He especially appreciated your recap of how law school doesn't actually teach you how to practice law 🙃
hehehe omg thank you!!!
Would you consider doing a video on the billion year contract people in scientology would sign to join the seaorg? I imagine it might be interesting to talk about how enforceable a billion year contract would be.
OOOOO interesting I hadn't heard of that 👀
I second this!
Yaaass please 🙏
@@samanthabriceno2157 Yeah it's a super interesting topic! Though I'm probably a bit biased because cults are my special interest.
@@LeejaMiller that's a rabbit hole I wouldn't dare my worst enemy to go down 🤯🕳
This is genuinely my favorite movie and I know every word. My specialty is the deer hunting monologue by queen Marisa Tomei. I love everything about this
One of the best movies I’ve ever watched with my Dad, wish he was here to see you talk about it.
Simply fantastic! ♥️
aw thank you!!
I remember watching it with my Dad too.
I grew up on this Movie…. Such a Classic! Perfect late night watch 🥰❤️👏🏻👏🏻
Check out Legal Eagle's review of My Cousin Vinny for more on the Pro Hac Vice part. He's older, so he knows the "before the internet" lawyering lol 😂
Love you Leeja! I always forget how young you are, because you carry yourself so maturely and speak so eloquently. Keep up the awesome videos, and even though it's not law related, I can't wait to see the next video on your new house! 💜
Aw thank you!!
I'm studing to become a civil servant and that in my country requires to learn a few laws*, including the Constitution. It was interesting to discover that in America it's not a constitucional right to be inmediately informed of the reasons of your detention because it is for us (except in case of site status). Of course, our Constitution came after a dictatorship, so that can explain why the people that wrote it was kind of sensitive about the idea of people being arrested just because.
Edit: * The laws that a public servant has to learn depends on the kind of public servant and the area of the Administration where they work. I mean, judges are public servants and those have to learn more than few laws, obviously. But there's certain laws that any public servant has to learn, at least in part. And the Constitution is a must for everyone.
It's worth noting that the director Jonathan Lynn had a law degree from Cambridge, so he wanted to make everything in the film as legally accurate as possible.
Oooo fascinating
If you have this on DVD, you should definitely listen to the director's commentary.
To the best of my understanding, this remains the cinematic exemplar of cross examination.
Also, he intended Vinny to be dyslexic, hence why he took the bar so many times, and wasn't happy about the book the judge gave him. I forget why they dropped it, but that was the original intent.
@@benjaminarmstrong4846 The screenwriter had written him as dyslexic and felt it was important to justify how many attempts it took Vinny to pass the bar despite clearly being a smart individual. The director cut that aspect out because he wasn't sure how to portray dyslexia.
If and when I'm on death row in Alabama, Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky, or Tennessee, I'm gonna ask for North Carolina-style barbecue as my last meal, then cover myself in the sauce so they refuse to cook me.
Hahahaaaaaa
THIS the film reaction since _Legally Blonde_ we've been waiting for. And hey, I came out in November 1992! 1992 WAS a great year!
lolllll
Fun Fact: When the judge (Fred Gwynne) is on screen I picture him as his Herman Munster character.
I found your channel when you reacted to Bussy Queen’s Drag Race Contract Review and I fell in love since. I LOVE your channel and this was a fun and educational episode! Could you maybe in the future react to the episode of The Nanny where Fran and CC go to court for jury duty? It’s a fun little episode that you might enjoy. Love you! 💕
Omg fun that’s a great idea
Yes please! I love the nanny!
I've always wondered what kind of questions they ask you on the bar. Like what type of questions or subject matter requires you to spend an additional 3+ months studying fresh out of law school. I know you've mentioned it, but I'd love a video of you going more in-depth with what kind of questions one could expect answer.
Heyyyyyyyy Leeja 💚🎉I am a “gay” and can be your “gay” 😊🤔
"Don't compare the age of our faces. Don't even look at me." I'm screaming 😆
Lolllll
@@LeejaMiller But really, Ralph made a deal with the devil. He's 60 now, and doesn't look older than his mid 40s.
More Moira, please
I love watching these videos as a non-american and learning about your laws. It's so interesting
Actually, there's a very good
movie, with Harrison Ford, called Presumed Innocent. Could you please do a reaction video to that one. I think you'll like it.
I 1st watch the legal eagle response to this movie and thought he covered everything but you covered a lot of really great points that he did not. His main focus was the trial and yours is the process and I appreciate that. this is a very well reviewed movie from an Expert
The “death qualified” jury definitely DOESNT sound like an impartial jury. I mean the entire death penalty thing is totally political here. Usually pro death penalty people are also very pro police and prosecution. So how is that impartial?
11:35 the talk about contracts makes me think of John Houseman's monologue in "The Paper Chase" (1973). Have you ever seen that movie? Would love to hear a lawyer react to it.
You’re my favorite lawyer. I love the demystifying the law sentiment you hold. That’s my dream! Anti elitism! I also have elitism internalized from school.
Aw thank you!!!
About to go to bed...then your video popped up. Bed is gonna have to wait. Gotta watch Leeja.
hehehe I know it's late but I was TOO EXCITED TO WAIT!!
Bruce McGill long before "legally Blonde 2" was D-Day in "Animal House". He rode a motorcycle up the stairs in the Delta House fraternity and drove the "Deathmobile" that crashed into the parade grandstand at the end of the movie.
As a retired career prosecutor (retired, still lecture from time to time), I often cite this movie as one of the two most accurate movie depictions of a trial I’ve ever seen. (The other is Anatomy of a Murder.) Setting all the comedy and absurd situations aside, the actual presentation of EVIDENCE, Gambini’s CROSS-EXAMINATION of witnesses, the adversarial-but-always-collegial relationships among counsel and judge are absolutely spot-on. Example: Remember when Gambini uses the tape measure to mark off fifty feet from the nearsighted witness? I had a “trial basket” with a tape measure among the many items in it for years before this movie came out. I’d hand one end of it to a witness and tell them “stop me when I’m the same distance from you that the defendant was when he fired the first shot” (or whatever else was at issue). The jury can then see how easy it was to see and identify the defendant. (Other things in the basket: plastic guns, plastic knives for demonstrative purposes; magnifying glass; highlighters and other things to use on charts; reference books and manuals, etc.) I’d love to see Leeja have a go at Anatomy of a Murder, if she hasn’t already.
You are totally my best friend in my head lol 😂 we have the same sense of humor.. I ❤️ it
Interesting take on my cousin Vinny I never considered it that way , it is a movie that makes me smile and laugh. I am a Mason by trade and I couldn’t help but look at the wall behind you , man it’s shockingly bad that’s some of the roughest work I’ve ever seen I know apprentices that would do a better job than that.
lol it's a 70 year old basement wall what can i say
@@LeejaMiller it's not the age of the wall it is how it's constructed there's just very little pride put into the work. If the wall was intended to never be seen hidden behind drywall for example fair enough however if it is supposed to be an exposed finished product it's not so good.
Leeja, have you ever seen the 1957 movie version of 12 Angry Men? I remember reading the play in school and watching the movie after and finding it very powerful!!
I would love a Q and A video. I'm a newish subscriber and would like to know about you ☺️☺️
god I just can’t get enough of your content, so immensely watchable, entertaining and educational. another fantastic video!!
Aw thank you!!!
I gotta say you look soooo much happier reacting to this movie than the R. Kelly case.
I think you should do more fun movies!😁
Up 8000 subs from July ❤️ been watching since June and loving your growth. You deserve it. Can't wait to see when you get those 100 K
Aw thank you!!! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻 me neither lol
A great movie to critique is, *The Devil's Advocate* starring Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves.
I was always told there are four types of Latin: Proto, Classical, Ecclesiastical, and Lawyer. You have confirmed that statement tonight, ma'am. 😉
Leeja!! Have you ever watched How to Get Away with Murder??? If you haven't it'd be cool if you could react to it..!
I haven’t but I’ve been meaning to film a react to it!!
one of my favorite movies! "You blend?" delivered with panache!!! thank you for the commentary. it was very informative. by the way, you look marvelous and have the best skin so i would say you look 21 years old. xo
Hehehe omg thank you
I absolutely LOVE this movie! I recently started my new job at the RI Supreme Court (previously worked as a Legal Assistant for a couple of firms) where I have to read the RI court rule book. While reading the court rules, I learned an applicant is no longer eligible to sit for the RI Bar if they have failed the exam in RI (or any other state) 5 times. After reading that I immediately thought of this movie thinking Vincent Gambini wouldn’t be eligible to sit for the RI Bar lmao!!
Now, all of you must watch "The Munsters". The classics never die. 😹
Do judges really have absolute power to overrule an objection? He wouldn't have to explain himself at all? Do people ever appeal their verdict based on being unfairly overruled during their trial?
A light-hearted topic! 👌 Perfect timing
Watch Witness for The Prosecution 1958 film, .British Justice with American Actor Tyrone Power.
I was watching your reaction to My Cousin Vinnie, and heard your comments about multiple attempts at passing the bar.
The Alaskan record is held by Tom Obermeyer, Esq.
He was successful in his 33rd attempt.
Leeja I always leave your videos having learned something (and always some good laughs) thank you queen 👉👈.
Hehehe Aw thank you for watching!!
Thank you so much for clarifying the minimum execution age in Alabama, and in such detail. I came very close to taking the LSat exam, but chickened out. You make me wish I had gobe through with it. 😊
I was once the foreperson on a Grand Jury in Brooklyn during Charles Hynes' tenure. As foreperson I was to sit in the courtroom where a judge would normally sit. Many defendants who came through (and I advise defendants to speak at the grand jury hearing!) called me "Your Honor." It was weird.
My husband was a JAG sergeant and did both sides, prosecution and defense. He says that the movie is actually pretty accurate. And yes, you're not kidding; it's the judge's court. He absolutely hated litigation and switched to another field as soon as he got out. He is now commercial real estate, contract, and IP.
Hearing what you just said, I would not be a suitable juror for this case. In fact, I question why anyone would feel comfortable should the death penalty be an optional outcome.
So the fact that I’m a year older than you blows my mind- not in a “you look older than your age” way because you DON’T, your skin is like glass wtf- but in a “you have your shit together so much oh my god you’re so smart congratulations” kind of way
I have such a problem with authority based on a number of things lol, I KNOW I would make a terrible lawyer for that reason🤣
Jesus H Christ. You... you... you are breathtakingly gorgeous. Like wtf. Your eyes might as well of leaped out of your head and stab me right through the heart.
I'll always think of Bruce McGill as 'D-Day' in 1978s "Animal House" but then I'm old
Dude, it's like Mona Lisa Vito was a far better lawyer than Vinny, lol.
Bruce McGill was in Animal House. btw, why can't I looooook at you? I am in love with your hair. Sorry.
It's a comedy, for God's sake!
Lawyers are a humorless bunch.
They don't surf either.
Hearing comments from an actual lawyer reacting to this movie was eye-opening, to say the least. Also, you made it entertaining as well.
Don’t compare our looks, don’t look at me 😂
My mind is absolutely blown to learn how old Ralph actually was here. Never woulda guessed it
A few days ago I thought “I’d love to see Leeja react to My Cousin Vinny” and I came across this today. #subscribed #notificationson
Hearing Moira (sp?) snort is surely a highlight of my day... I always loved this movie and Marisa Tomei is the best. Great video, this was a fun recap! Is there a Britney update coming soon? Love your channel!!!
I was really enjoying your reactions and explanations of the law and trial process then to hear that nonchalant burp with the best resonance I've heard in a long time ,I have a good female friend that is great at those it busts me up and makes me giggle every time. so thank you for including that Leeja got my subscription right there.
Love this & love this movie! 🍿
(And your ring!!)
heheh thank you! Thanks for watching!
She is totally right: Law school doesn't teach you how to actually practice law. I had to learn by actually dealing with clients and courts ⚖️
More lawyers than electricians, plumbers and carpenters combined
I can’t believe Karate Kid came out in 1984! I was 10 1/2…. Lol! And, had the biggest crush on Ralph Macchio! My Cousin Vinny is definitely a classic!
My independent ass not wanting anyone's help and feeling very called out by Lisa at the end "win every trial with someone help WHAT A NIGHTMARE"
I come from a family full of lawyers and my poor cousin is on his third try at the bar. I should send him this movie to perk him up.
Really enjoyed your analysis on this.
Well done. When a licensed attorney speaks? I am always listening and learning. Although I've never been in trouble with the law, I never had an opportunity to pursue a career in law.
Big $$ for law school when I was of age. I became a tool and die maker and did well.
I chose to work harder not smarter!
Thanks for the great video.
thank you!!
I think that Justice Scalia was actually born in 1750
This was fantastic and made me laugh. You’re completely right about how narrow-minded people really can’t come out of their bubbles. You didn’t say that but I did. Regardless, I find you informative and inspirational. Alll the love. ❤🎉
When Vinny looked at the pic of tire tracks, he already figured every thing out... couldn't he have used the prosecution witness (Wilber) to establish that the defendants car couldn't have made that burn out? Why bother with the temperment of STOMP STOMP STOMP miss Vito?
from a legal pov, this makes no sense.
I've always been fascinated with the practice of law. I earned my Ph. D from the University of Colorado in Astrophysics, but there's no way I could ever earn a Juris Doctorate. It's a different type of intelligence. Congratulations that you did.
I love this movie. In Canada in a crim trial the defense (accused) doesn't have to turn over anything and can do surprises. In Canadian civil law both plaintiff and defendant have to fully disclose everything to each other. Is it not the same in the US? We call it "Gotcha law" in Canada. Judges are not keen on it.
Nope no surprises over here!
@@LeejaMiller So the defense in a criminal trial has to turn over everything? I have been getting my knowledge up to snuff to do criminal work over the last year... that just seems screwed up to me.
@@LeejaMiller You should try to do a joint video with this youtuber. I think this is hilarious.
th-cam.com/video/AeARRJyKkwY/w-d-xo.html
I wanted to be a lawyer but I could never get up in front of a jury. I’m afraid of public speaking. Great reaction though.
Thank you!! There’s tons of lawyers who don’t do litigation so they never have to get in front of a jury or judge at all. But also totally fair not to want to be a lawyer lol
I know this is a year old, but I found it trying to find a full clip of Marisa Tomei’s testimony. I don’t know about Alabama, but as a lawyer in Louisiana, I can confirm that we have some fairly medieval (at least in my opinion) practices here. One of the things that’s always amazed me is seeing how quickly people are brought for arraignment in other states. We obviously have bail hearings, but that is all they are here - the person is told the charges and bail amount, but they are not allowed to enter a plea. Arraignment comes MUCH later. The State has up to 90 (with a 30 day extension, so in reality, 120) days to file the bill of information and bring a defendant to court for their arraignment in felony cases (it’s half this for misdemeanor cases, and the time frame drastically increases if the person makes bail). Because of this, the vast majority of incarcerated defendants in felony cases don’t actually enter a plea until around the 90 day mark. After that, depending on the case load of that parish and that courtroom, they’ll receive another court date anywhere from 30-90 days later. It’s at that court date that people are usually offered a plea. The ‘lucky’ ones get out around four moths after their arrest, however, most spend around 6-9 months in jail before being released on probation. The truly insane part (if that’s not bad enough) about our system, is that non-violent offenders only serve 25-35% of their sentences before being released on parole; therefore, most people, when they accept probation, have already served the equivalent of a two to three year sentence; however, they are always so eager to get out, that they gladly sign up probation, further extending their time in the system, AND getting a felony conviction. I could ramble on for days about how screwed up it is in Louisiana, but I’ll refrain, because it will just ruin my day thinking about it.
You should consider reacting to mrs. doubtfire! The entire movie is about divorce and court monitoring.
Very informative as well as fun to watch:)
yay thank you for watching!!
Thank you and
Oh man I don’t do well with spooky movies BUT the other two are DEF on the list!
Loved it!
I know it's a stretch but how about Jessica Tate's murder triar in "Soap"? Season 1, episodes 21-25.
That's some interesting courtroom behaviour... 😂
Hey Leeja, there's this great comedy series on Netflix, called Crazy Ex Girlfriend... there is a lot of lawyer talk cause the protagonist and coworkers are lawyers. I think it could be a reaction series if you like it, given they work at a law firm, there's plenty of law to comment on, besides other great GREAT topics such as mental health and relationships :D
Can we please have a Mona Lisa Vito Halloween transformation Leeja? In the floral catsuit of course 🖤🎃
Hahaha omg that would be pretty epic
@Leeja Miller And by the way, he was NOT saying that her needs "do not matter". He was actually pointing out that they matter a great deal, illustrating that they, along with many other concerns and needs, will be dramatically impacted by the outcome of this case.
I love the "i think I get the point"
My sister recommended this. I am so happy you are doing this.
Aw thank you!!!
Yayy! So excited you made this video! This movie is so infinitely quotable and fun!
agreed!
Ralph Macchio was amazing in The Outsiders. It is definitely worth a watch.
That burp *iconic* 😂
Thank u so much
I'm late to the comments and forgive me if someone already offered this, but an important plot point that further humanizes/explains Vinny, but was cut out of the final film, is that he was dyslexic, ergo his multiple attempts at the Bar exam and his reluctant acceptance of help from Mona Lisa and her reading of the law books.
I've seen this movie dozens of times.... and literally just realized that Vinny represents the Devil in this movie. 6 years since graduating law school, 6 tries to pass the Bar exam, and 6 weeks practicing law. 6-6-6.....
I discovered this movie because of this reaction. Thank You. 🤤
Also, would you be interested in reacting to the Erin Brockovich film?
I already did!
@@LeejaMiller 😱😱 Searching for the video NOW!!. Thanks
22:32
LegalEagle another lawyer on YT felt that Judge made a bad call with the "Overrule". He felt the DA did not "laid the foundation on how this guy (Wilbur) is an expert"
LegalEagle felt his overruling could have caused a mistrial had the conviction overturned...or something like that.
Sooooo....why are you in a concrete block room 🤔
cuz I like to keep things spooky, you should see my more current videos for a REAL spooky black room
I like your reaction a lot. One of my favorite movies!
What about Lincoln Lawyer? Could a lawyer do that? Spoiler alert for Lincoln Lawyer!
I mean what he does at the end, calling in a witness he knows will react badly to his client. But goodly to a previous client, who is now obviously serving time for a crime he didn't commit. That police detective witness will realize he got the wrong guy, last time around. And here is the right guy, a serial offender, with a very clear way of working. And the lawyer gave his latest client away, in a not very subtle way. "Hey, I just called in a witness, I never breached confidentiality!"
