Description of this Scarface Movie Poster
Scarface is an American feature film by director Brian De Palma, in which Al Pacino plays the main role. The film is a remake of Howard Hawks' 1932 original, performed very loosely by De Palma.
The story, originally based on Al Capone's rise to gangster boss, was moved to Miami in the 1980s and shows the rise and fall of Cuban immigrant Tony Montana in the world of gangster gangs and cocaine trafficking. However, the personalities of the historical Al Capone and the fictional Tony Montana have little in common. While in the film Tony, totally socially incompatible, owes his rise almost exclusively to his brutality and cold-bloodedness, Al Capone increased his power, in particular due to his negotiation skills, with which he was able to bring former rivals at his side thanks to concessions.
The film was initially controversial due to its violent scenes, but transformed into a part of pop culture in the following years.
In May 1980, Fidel Castro opened the port of Mariel in Cuba to reunite Cuban and American family members. It requires boat owners traveling to the United States to take opposition figures, criminals and mentally ill people with them. At the time, 25,000 of the 125,000 immigrants who came to Florida had a criminal record (Mariel boat crisis).
Among them is the impoverished ex-convict Antonio "Tony" Montana, who lands in Miami and wants to try his luck in the USA. After a heated conversation with border officials, which was marked by an angry outburst, he is brought to a kind of collective camp, the so-called "Freedom Town". After killing Rebenga, a former high-ranking communist, during an uprising, the clients ensure that he and some of his friends are released from the camp with a green card.
He first works as a dishwasher with his friend Manny Ray, but eventually gets the opportunity to get involved in the drug environment with Omar Suárez, who had given him the murder order. Tony and Manny would buy cocaine from Colombian drug dealer Hector at the Sun Ray Hotel. In addition to Tony and Manny, Chi Chi and Angel Fernandez also come to the affair. Tony and Angel go to the apartment to store the things while Manny and Chi Chi wait outside. Angel stands at the open door so he can see if everything is okay. Manny is flirting intensely with a young American, so he doesn't notice that Angel and Tony are ambushed and now threatened with death by Hector if Tony doesn't give him the money they would have to pay for the drugs. However, Tony is not intimidated by Hector's threats about what his friend Angel must pay for his life: he is brutally murdered with a chainsaw in Hector's apartment. Manny and Chi Chi notice something is wrong and arrive at the apartment just in time to save Tony and shoot Hector's accomplices. Armed with the chainsaw, he is initially able to escape, but is persecuted by Tony, placed and shot in the open street. The three survivors and the cocaine then flee the scene.
Tony and Manny then meet Frank Lopez, for whom Tony killed Rebenga in Freedom Town; Lopez arranged this as revenge for his brother, who had been killed by Rebenga. Lopez introduces Tony to the store and Tony quickly makes a name for himself on the street, which in turn displeases Lopez.
Next stop is Cochabamba in Bolivia, where Tony strikes a million dollar deal with drug lord Alejandro Sosa, during which Lopez's henchman Omar is exposed and murdered as a supposed informant for the authorities. drug. However, Tony did the deal without his boss's approval, which is why the breakup with Lopez takes place. This hits Tony, who has also been keeping an eye on Lopez's wife, Elvira, with two killers on her neck. Tony shoots the two and seriously injures them. He then confronts Frank Lopez and Manny shoots him. Tony shoots corrupt police officer Mel Bernstein, who worked for Lopez. As a result, he rises to the gangster king of Miami. He builds an empire, marries Elvira and continues to do business with Sosa.
But money, power and drug use soon get to his head and Elvira criticizes him more and more. Counting and handing over a large sum of money to the supposed money launderer Seidelbaum, it turns out that he is an undercover investigator and the process is filmed by the police. Manny had arranged contact with Seidelbaum, but was not present at the access. Ultimately, it's unclear whether Manny knowingly betrayed Tony. Tony suspects him, but ultimately believes in his innocence. Now Tony is threatened with charges and prison for, among other things, money laundering. His lawyer makes it clear that Tony should at least be convicted of tax evasion - a clear allusion to Al Capone. Sosa therefore offers to buy it for free when he helps him in New York to lead an assassination attempt by Sosa's assistant Alberto, which Tony accepts. Back home, a dispute escalates with Elvira in a restaurant, who then leaves him. Tony prepares the planned assassination attempt with Alberto. When he wants to blow up the target's car with a remote-controlled bomb, even though the target's wife and children are there, Tony foils the attack and shoots Alberto. That's why Sosa breaks up with him.
Back in Miami, Tony can't find his acting representative Manny anywhere. His mother also tells him about the disappearance of his sister Gina, after which he searches for her. When a trail leads him to a house where Manny opens and he sees Gina in the background, he realizes the two have a relationship and shoots Manny spontaneously. The realization that his actions were wrong is too late. He returns to his villa with his sister, while Sosa's mercenaries also enter the house. They kill his bodyguards and finally Gina, who tried to shoot Tony. Destroyed on the ground, he takes an M16 assault rifle with an M203 grenade launcher and faces Sosa's combat team. He can kill many attackers, but is shot several times. Tony provokes the attackers when a Sosa killer, "The Skull", appears behind him and shoots him in the back with a shotgun. Mortally struck, Tony falls into a pool of water.
