Description
Question 1: Joe Pesci’s birthday is a great excuse to revisit his career—on what date was the New Jersey–born actor actually born?

Question 2: For which film did Joe Pesci win his only Academy Award, and in which category, delivering one of the shortest acceptance speeches in Oscar history?

Question 3: In Goodfellas, which tense table-side exchange—drawn from a real incident Pesci experienced and largely improvised—has him snap, “Funny how? Funny like I’m a clown?”

Question 4: In Home Alone, Joe Pesci plays Harry, one half of a bumbling burglar duo—what nickname do he and Marv adopt that becomes their soggy calling card?

Question 5: To keep Home Alone family-friendly, what did Joe Pesci famously use instead of his usual profane tough-guy language during frustration-filled moments?
