"The most pernicious effect of the rumor might be the implication that she didn't deserve the Oscar in the first place. She did. Out of all of the movies nominated in her category, My Cousin Vinny is the only one that remains relevant today through cable and broadcast reruns (thanks to it being, you know, entirely enjoyable). And a big component of its charm is Tomei's sparkling performance as one of those tough-broad East-Coast Italian roles loved by actors and audiences alike. Playing a broad comic part with depth and nuance is a difficult feat, and Tomei nailed it. She earned her Oscar just as much as Vinny earned that acquittal."
