SYNOPSIS/PLOT

Brian De Palma's blood-and-sun-drenched saga of a Cuban deportees rise to the top of Miamis cocaine business has become something of a popular classic since its release--its been referenced in rap songs and subsequent gangster movies and quoted the world over. Despite this lovefest with the dialogue, the films brutal violence and lack of positive characters still make it controversial and disliked by certain critics. Al Pacino stars as Tony Montana, whose intelligence, guts, and ambition help him skyrocket from dishwasher to the top of a criminal empire but whose eventual paranoia and incestuous desire for his kid sister (Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio) prove his undoing. Michelle Pfeiffer plays Tonys neglected coke-addicted trophy wife, and Steven Bauer is his concerned friend. F. Murray Abraham, Robert Loggia, and Paul Shenar are some of Tonys sleazy business partners and potential killers.
