The 1983 American crime thriller directed by Brian De Palma, was a reboot of the 1932 film which tells the tale of the Cuban immigrant Tony Montana (Al Pacino) who arrives in Miami in the 1980s with nothing, but ends up becoming a wealthy mob boss. Besides Al Pacino and Michelle Pfeiffer, the cast featured Stephen Spielberg, Robert Loggia, F. Murray Abraham, and Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio.
