Many movies come along and many are labeled comedies even when they are not funny at all! This one is! The story is well conceived and believable. Things like this have and do happen. I know we all consider ourselves to sophisticated to get caught up in a pickle like these 2 kids in a small southern town but it could happen! I know that in the South there are people who act and talk like these people! I know that the Law is more a mans word and a handshake usually is all you need. Joe Pesci was brilliant and funny in his Brooklyn Guido type of way and Marisa was awesome as his girlfriend. She is downright beautiful and her lip-smacking style of talking was dead-on. She deserved that Oscar and not too many win Oscars for comedy but she proved you can do it and do it well!
