Scarface

Scarface is a gripping crime epic inspired by the 1932 classic of the same name. Al Pacino’s unforgettable performance as gangster Tony Montana is a tour-de-force of Brian De Palma filmmaking. The screenplay by Academy Award® winner Oliver Stone follows the violent career of a small-time Cuban refugee hoodlum who wants to be somebody in the crime underworld of Miami’s cocaine empire. Gunning his way to the top to become a drug trade kingpin, Pacino’s Tony Montana is mesmerizing as he pursues his twisted version of the American Dream. His taste of power is cut short when he makes the fatal mistake of becoming an addict himself. A vengeful Bolivian cocaine supplier wants Tony terminated. Tony’s downfall climaxes in a hail of blood and bullets, whose images are both vicious and exhilarating.
