She's Vinny's Goil
</hdr><body>
<p>By Michael Quinn
</p>
<p> She has done for "dese, dem and dose" what Laurence
Olivier did for "Forsooth!"--or so one would think from the
raves for Marisa Tomei's star turn in film farce My Cousin Vinny
as Brooklyn barrister Joe Pesci's car-savvy fiance. Tomei's
screen-friendly self-confidence belies her brief resume: from
a walk-on in 1984's The Flamingo Kid to Sly Stallone's daughter
in last year's Oscar. Coming up: Tomei playing comedian Mabel
Normand in a Charlie Chaplin biopic. Of her current incarnation
as the garish Mona Lisa Vito, Tomei says, "I don't think she is
a bimbo. I think she stands by her man, she loves him...and
she loves her clothes."
