When Jimmy Wants A Drink Dont Give Him Any Lip.

modulous says...

In case anyone thinks this is a shocking case of casual domestic violence in 1930s America, I think you almost got the point of the scene. Tom Powers (played by Jimmy) is a sadistic gang leader that isn't just running bootleg alcohol - he's demanding booze for breakfast. He would eventually be gunned down by police in a similar 'Rise and Fall' as Pacino went through in Scarface.

So if you thought Cagney was being an asshole - that's because that was precisely what he was being directed to be and precisely why the film was regarded so highly (since previous Tough Guys/criminals had all been portrayed by attractive, well-spoken Thespians!).

Slow motion bullets vs objects, with a message

Matthu says...

How do you stop hatred and glorification of violence? Are you trying to say I can't enjoy a good 50 cent rap, or watch scarface again?

I think violence is in our nature, we cannot deny it. We can however acknoledge it without doing harm to our neighbors.

Poverty, lack of opportunity and social inequality are at the root of violence.

IMO.

Obama Administration Issues New Medical Marijuana Policy

Memorare says...

About time. Oakland is already prepping for an increase in applications for clubs and San Fran / San Jose likely will follow.

Next Step - as anyone who has dealt weed knows, the quick, simple, easy way to halt the deadly large scale illegal trade is to make it Legal.

Take the profit out of trade and you kill trade.

When people can buy a pack/box/bag/tin of WeedyBits at the local Safeway, no one's going to go to all the trouble of becoming Scarface.

Who's the better actor? (User Poll by Throbbin)

burdturgler says...

I do love Raging Bull, Scarface etc. Pacino and De Niro are legends. No question about it. But they stopped making good movies. Morgan Freeman is great but he is very type cast imo. Gran Torino? Clint is still kicking ass. Polls like this are tough because they're all awesome.

also .. I think there at least a dozen other actors that should be in the list instead of James Earl Jones.

blankfist says...

^Have you ever seen Bruce Almighty?

Al Pacino and De Niro's past acting history can carry any crappy movie they make from here until their deaths. Scarface! Goodfellas! Glengary Glen Ross! Raging Bull! These guys are legends. Morgan Freeman is awesome, and so is Clint Eastwood, but they don't hold a candle to Pacino and De Niro.

Opera you didn't know you knew (lucia sextet)

Deano says...

According to Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucia_di_Lammermoor#Trivia, it's been used in;

The "Lucia Sextet" (Chi mi frena in tal momento?) was recorded in 1908 by Enrico Caruso, Marcella Sembrich, Antonio Scotti, Marcel Journet, Barbara Severina, and Francesco Daddi, (Victor single-sided 70036) and released at the price of $7.00, earning it the title of "The Seven-Dollar Sextet". The film The Great Caruso incorporates a scene featuring a performance of this sextet.

The "Lucia Sextet" melody is best known to some from its use by the American slapstick comedy team the Three Stooges in their short films Micro-Phonies and Squareheads of the Round Table, sung in the latter with the lyrics "Oh, Elaine, can you come out tonight...." But the melody is used most dramatically in Howard Hawks' gangster classic "Scarface": Tony Camonte (Paul Muni) whistles "Chi mi frena?" in the film's opening sequence, as he guns down a ganglord boss he has been assigned to protect.

It has also been used in Warner Brothers cartoons: Long-Haired Hare, sung by the opera singer (Bugs Bunny's antagonist); Book Revue, sung by the wolf antagonist; and in Back Alley Oproar, sung by a choir full of Sylvesters, the cat.

The "Lucia Sextet" melody also figures in two scenes from the 2006 film The Departed, directed by Martin Scorsese. In one scene, Jack Nicholson's character is shown at a performance of "Lucia di Lammermoor", and the music on the soundtrack is from the sextet. Later in the film, Nicholson's cell phone ringtone is the sextet melody.

The Sextet is also featured during a scene from the 1986 comedy film, The Money Pit.

In the children's book "The Cricket in Times Square," Chester Cricket chirps the tenor part to the "Lucia Sextet" as the encore to his farewell concert, literally stopping traffic in the process.

An aria from the "mad scene," "Il dolce suono" (from the 3rd Act), was re-popularized when it was featured in the film The Fifth Element in a performance by the alien diva Plavalaguna (voiced by Albanian soprano Inva Mula-Tchako and played onscreen by French actress Maïwenn Le Besco). A loose remake of this film version of the song was covered by Russian pop singer Vitas.

The "mad scene" was also used in the first episode of the anime series Gankutsuou (in place of L'Italiana in Algeri which was the opera used in that scene in The Count of Monte Cristo).

The "mad scene" aria, as sung by Inva Mula-Tchako, was used in an episode of Law & Order: Criminal Intent involving the murder of a young violinist by her opera singer mother (who performs the song right after the murder).

The "mad scene" was released as a music video by Russian male soprano Vitas in 2006.

Among other selections from the opera, the "mad scene", "Verranno a te sull'aure", and "Che facesti?" feature prominently in the 1983 Paul Cox film Man of Flowers, especially "Verranno a te sull'aure," which accompanies a striptease in the film's opening scene.

The opera is mentioned in the novels The Count of Monte Cristo, Madame Bovary and Where Angels Fear to Tread and was reputedly one of Tolstoy's favorites.

"Regnava nel silenzio" accompanies the scene in Beetlejuice in which Lydia (Winona Ryder) composes a suicide note.

A portion of the opera is also used in a key scene of the film The Fifth Element, written and directed by Luc Besson.
