Description

Blazing across the screen in a spray of bullets, the gangster-film sensation Scarface helped set the standard for the genre for decades to come. Swaggering, scary, and unexpectedly charming, Paul Muni gives an iconic portrayal of criminal sociopathy as Tony Camonte, the ruthless, machine-gun-toting mobster who rises through the ranks of a bootlegging empire atop an ever-increasing body count, but whose possessive relationship with his wild-child sister (Ann Dvorak) threatens to be his undoing. With rat-a-tat command of editing and dialogue, and his trademark panache, director Howard Hawks creates an unstoppable sense of dynamism while pushing on-screen violence to new heights of brutality.

Ebenfalls: Na ja

Stimmt schon. Jeder Gangster Movie mit den Herren Humphrey Bogart, James Cagney oder Edward G. Robinson bringt mehr gute Unterhaltung (ausserdem mag ich den Hauptdarsteller Paul Muni nicht).
Und das Remake mit Al Pacino ist sowieso um Welten besser (auch wenn der Vergleich etwas hinkt. Schliesslich liegen 50 Jahre zwischen den beiden Movies).
Die Genialität eines Howard Hawks in allen Ehren....ich kann dem Film bestenfalls folgende Wertung geben:
Na ja

Propaganda-Anti-Ganster-Film von 32 mit naiven, massentauglich angelegten Charakteren. Nahezu alle Cagney/Bogart-Gangster-Filme sind besser.
