scarface

One of the best mob movies ever made, Scarface -- directed by Brian De Palma and written by Oliver Stone -- is the story of a Cuban refugee who wants to live the American dream, but not in the way it was intended.Scarface was released in 1983 and it is an actual remake of the 1932 film with the same name, but with a much more deeper exploration of its theme.Showcasing his character's grit, wit and charm, Al Pacino gave one of his best performances in the movie.However, the most important element of the film is the protagonist’s motivation – Tony Montana always wants more, and patience is not one of his traits. While in Cuba, he didn’t have anything, and now he wants it all.Being compared with the Shakespearian Macbeth, the tragedy of Scarface is that because Tony Montana wanted everything, and nothing satisfied him, he ended up with nothing.Here are 11 Scarface quotes that prove that too much of anything can come back to bite -- they will still inspire you to work hard though (just choose to work with integrity).Good?
