P711 CEEFAX 711 Fri 5 Mar 21:09/50 READHEAR VIDEO REVIEW DHERE 6/6 MY COUSIN VINNIE, FOX VIDEO (15) A new release with captions by the National Captioning Institute, My Cousin Vinnie is a comedy starring Joe Pesci, the thinking man's Danny De Vito. He plays a seemingly incompetent lawyer trying to defend his cousin against a murder charge in the Deep South of the USA. The film is very amusing, sometimes hilarious, and the captions (for which an NCI VideoCaption Reader is needed) are excellent, if quicker than teletext ones. Events Letters Subtitles CmntyInfo
