RT” REVIEW

t Thursday, the Panther Lounge hosted Bob Lam- tat the Barn. Bob Lambert provided both fabu-

s music and comedy. This is where the word Sociable’’ (time for you to drink) comes from.

) Lambert played some really great songs such as:

tty Woman by Roy Orbison, You Got It by Roy

Orbison, Sweet Home Alabama, and Bob also received me requests like the Unicorn Song which has great

ions to it. Bob told different kinds of jokes that is

table to most people. Bob performed somewhat the

same amount of jokes as he did songs. Bob also, sold me of his cassettes for $10.00 during his break

ore he began to sing again.

fing Bob Lambert’s performances he attracted a

y, very big crowd. Bob’s audience was so big that bout one half of his fans had to stand up, but hey

ley didn’t mind because the people were enjoying the at music and jokes. I remember for one of the

gs, I looked back from my table where I was

ng, and some of Bob’s audience was standing and uldn’t believe my eyes these people were swaying cand forth to the music having a good old time. rall, [had an awesome time, and mostly every-

y else looked like they were as well. When Bob finished of his entertainment, he was asked back ne crowd who was saying ‘‘Encore’’ and ‘‘Bob’’ atedly. So, Bob played some more songs for

it fifteen minutes or so and ‘‘Then it was over,

Ore it Began’’ a Bob Lambert saying.

Stan Rothenstein - Mitchell Whitfield

The plot - Vincent Gamini has to defend two innocent

boys accused of murder ina very small Southern courtroom.

The problem - Vincent has never tried acourtcase before. In fact, he only passed the bar six weeks

prior. Atone moment, Joe Pesci said in his unique way that it was his ‘‘first foray into the trial proc-

“*My Cousin Vinny’’ was directed by Jonathan Lynn, who previously directed ‘‘Nuns on the Run’’. The film was written by Dale Launer, who wrote great hits such as “Ruthless People’’ and ‘‘Dirty Rotten Scoun- drels’’. After seeing that these two people were involved in the making of this film, you know it will be full of light hearted laughter.

If your wonder how Dale Launer got his idea for this film? Well, when he learned through a friend that was waiting for his bar results that you could keep taking them, and if fact that one candidate had tried thirteen times, he felt it would be quite comical. Especially if you had just been arrested for murder and the only chance that you have is a lawyer that had to keep writing the bar exam.

The movie’s ‘‘best light’’ is the rapport between Joe and Marisa. There was definitely chemistry between the two characters. The key element of the two char- acters was that they loved to argue. The moments when they did were among the best segments in the movie, in my opinion.

If your wondering, the prison used in the movie was notarecreation. It was the real thing. It was the Lee Arrendale Correctional Facility in Alto, amaximum security prison for 18 to 24 yearold men. You would be interested to know that in the scene where Billand Stan had to walk down a long corridor carrying blan- kets to their cell, they were in an area called Special Management Unit. [tis a high-security housing for inmates responsible for particularly severe crimes. In fact, real life prisoners were the ones yelling and screaming at the actors when they walked by,
