Talking Pondo: The Last Waltz and My Cousin Vinny
Description
In this episode, Marty gives Clif the movie The Last Waltz to watch and Clif gives Marty the movie My Cousin Vinny to watch.
In this Thanksgiving installment of Talking Pondo, Clif and Marty serve up the perfect double feature: My Cousin Vinny (1992) and The Last Waltz (1978).
They break down Joe Pesci’s hilarious courtroom chaos, Marisa Tomei’s Oscar-winning performance, and why Vinny is one of the most rewatchable comedies ever made. Then they pivot to Martin Scorsese’s legendary concert film The Last Waltz: a raw, beautifully shot farewell to The Band, filmed on Thanksgiving night and packed with music icons like Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and Joni Mitchell.
