Scarface (1932)

An outstanding gangster movie from the original batch released in the early 1930's, Scarface was a thinly disguised essay on the career of Al Capone staring stage actor Paul Muni whose strange simian-like characterization of the gangster made for a compelling viewing experience.

Influential brutal powerful Gangster gem Greatest Film #40

 Brutal, raw and harsh with lots of blatant symbolism, the film was also darkly satiric. It's very dated as a very early sound film and Paul Muni's stylish theatrical acting... but it still packs a powerful punch. Paul Muni  is still riveting as Al Capone like mobster.   Makes a great double feature with DePalma's crass, wild gory and very watchable re-make with Pacino.  This film however is far better, STILL.

#40 on my Greatest Films of all time list.
