Al_Pacino stars as Tony Montana, an exiled Cuban criminal who goes to work for Miami drug lord Robert_Loggia. Montana rises to the top of Florida's crime chain, appropriating Loggia's cokehead mistress (Michelle_Pfeiffer) in the process. Howard_Hawks' "X Marks the Spot" motif in depicting the story line's many murders is dispensed with in the 1983 Scarface; instead, we are inundated with blood by the bucketful, especially in the now-infamous buzz saw scene. One carry-over from the original Scarface is Tony Montana's incestuous yearnings for his sister Gina (Mary_Elizabeth_Mastrantonio). The screenplay for the 1983 Scarface was written by Oliver_Stone.
