Again, for those who are against a remake in this case:

"Scarface is a 1983 American crime film directed by Brian De Palma and written by Oliver Stone, a remake of the 1932 film of the same name." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scarface_(1983_film)

The original Scarface movie from 1932 is one of the most influential and (imo) best gangster movies ever made. I just watched it 2 weeks ago again (it was on my most favorite TV channel, the only TV channel in Germany which still occassionally shows movie classics from all eras, silent movies included). I strongly recommend Scarface (1932) if you haven't watched it.

Scarface is actually one of the few cases in movie history were both, the original and the remake, are undisputed classics.

Both are in AFI's top ten of all-time best gangster movies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AFI%27s_10_Top_10#Gangster
