With the Godfather, Freedmen or Pulp Fiction, Scarface is one of the essentials of the gangster film. Released in 1983, this one tells the life of Antonio “Tony” Montana, a Cuban refugee who arrives in Miami without a penny and without a concrete project. To get back on track, he starts working for a drug dealer and rises through the ranks of the criminal world. Camped by an Al Pacino at the peak of his art, the film is subject to many controversies and suffers from the murderous criticism of the world of cinema. Arousing controversy because of its violence and harsh language, it will finally benefit from its distribution on video cassette.
Scarfacea complicated project
Like a Star Wars, Scarface was a difficult project to accomplish. At the time, the film was written by Oliver Stone, who was battling heroin addiction, and the production was struggling to find actors. After Robert De Niro’s refusal, she turns to Sylvester Stallone, but an agenda conflict prevents the actor from responding positively to the proposal. It is finally Al Pacino who takes on the role for what is, still today, one of his most incredible performances. Whether Scarface earned its “cult film” status, it’s for its very bold choices. In addition to being captivating, the work of Brian de Palma (who was supported by his friend Steven Spielberg during the last scene of the film) is a visual uppercut, as much in the staging as in the lights and the music. Tinted with a dark and oppressive atmosphere, it depicts strong themes such as immigration, social ascent and the unbridled quest for power. Over the years, it has gradually entered popular culture and nowadays there are countless references appearing in movies, TV shows, video games, songs, etc.
