Notes et avis

That's pretty crazy to say that the remake is better than the original but not very far from the original Scarface yes what is a remake this is the original totally different but keeps the same style and this one he's not Colombian he's Italian has a whole different plot and it's a great movie

Saw this one night on Turner classic movie network . Great film , Paul Muni was a tough sob in the movie . The remake with Pacino is kind of similar , and has the most quoted lines in movie history . I enjoyed both versions .

Can't believe this isn't for purchase yet. That one star is for the person holding up the process
