In Cuba, Tony Montana (Pacino) was a petty criminal, and after moving with his friend Manolo (Bauer) in Miami, decided to play for high stakes: shoot without hesitation, silent when near the neck wound up a chainsaw, divorce, sort out, solve problems, take the best cocaine, and the best women (Pfeiffer). But broke both punishment given to him by the boss (Loggia): "Do not underestimate the greed of others. Does not stick to its own product. ".

Directed by De Palma and screenwriter Oliver Stone, formally writing a remake of classic gangster, in turn violated the unwritten rules of the genre. They did a three-hour movie protagonist ordinary provincial redneck. Has neither the diabolical cunning, no charisma, or even inhuman cruelty - Taking only the arrogance and impudence. Michael Corleone to Tony Montana has no more to do than to the Pope. Here, as the Hawks, the conflict of dark and light in the human soul - the first and only humane action in your life a character does, moved cocaine - but to call him a villain is not possible. Montana drama - the drama of yesterday's beggar who oblitsevat walls gold, bought a suit, married a blonde and, lying in the jacuzzi, understands that and like to spend something more than that. He had got himself a personal copy.
