Arguably Al Pacino career role Scarface is the portrayal of a ruthless gangster, with no barriers who won't stop at anything.
As good as Brian De Palma is and as good as this film is it would never be as good as its final result without Al Pacino in the title role. It is an amazing, one of the best portrayals of a gangster in film ( many of these portrayals belong to Pacino).
This is a gutless, ruthless journey through the life of a penniless migrant who becomes a rich tyrannic, determined gangster and it one of the cult films of the early eighties. Michelle Pfeiffer also starres in quite a prominent role. Warning: if you think that this film won't be violent then I suggest you son't even consider the thought of watching it; this version of the film hides nothing.

Precisely, this is a beautiful film centered around a french model and a retired judge and tells their stories and their exquisite relationship.
A compelling end to a beautiful trilogy the third installment is the best. Capturing performances from the two main characters they depict this story as well as it can be shown. The love in this film, not necessarily between the two characters provokes emotion and Tringtingnant tops off the film with a bun bunch of very memorable lines, lining this drama with a dash of wit.
Perhaps one of the hardest things that should be accomplished in trilogies is wrapping up the trilogy (not necessarily just the last film). The film 'Red' succeeds in doing so and the director does it very smartly not always directly relating to the previous us films but keeping them loosely connected.
Perhaps this is the best French film I have seen so far.

The career performance from JeanLouis Tringtingant as the 'conformist' of the Italian Gestapo defines this political drama along with the mastery work of mastermind Bernardo Bertolucci.
It is simply a classic film in genre, very appealing to those who know their history of fascist Italy. Tringtingant portrays the confined movements and confidential mannerisms of the gestapo officer in such a fashion that it is unquestionably spot on.
A powerful film, the Conformist is one that has very deep back stories, tying loose ends in the film and giving it another dimension. The watcher is engaged within the secret lives of many throughout this film.
This is without doubt an enthralling political drama which is good study material and is quite realistic in multiple ways.
