Step back into the pre-Code chaos with the original Scarface—before the cocaine and neon came the Tommy guns and tabloid frenzy. We dissect Howard Hawks’ gritty gangster epic, explore how it scandalized America, and debate whether Paul Muni’s Tony Camonte still holds cinematic swagger. Bonus: the wild story behind the film’s censorship battle.
