Is this the best scene from the movie Scarface (HD)? 

Which is your favourite scene from the movie?

Why is it that I never noticed until now, that the guy who killed Tony was standing behind him the entire time during this scene!

Amazing how this was poorly received by critics when it released, and is now one of the most iconic films in history.

I love Tony Montanna's swag. I love how he stood up to anyone who tried to put him down. Confidence unscathed.

I like how Tony knows precisely how active the military and police are. He's got everything in his sights, leaves nothing to chance.

I love how Tony ate the lemon from the water which was for them to wash their hands in. No f**ks given

“Leave your friend here, maybe he can tell me how to run my business “ what a great line

The eating of the lemon is so significant to Tony’s character. It shows that no matter how much money you have, you can’t buy class.

This scene was very significant! The reason Tony was able to stay alive because Sosa realized that Tony and Omar are not on the same page and Tony was talking freely on what he thinks needs to happen! If he saw them in sync, Sosa would have killed both of them but he knew he was going to kill Omar!

Tony’s poor antics coming from Cuba eating the lemon he’s supposed to be washing his hands with and still having the confidence of a boss just shows how fast and motivated his ascend was along with his fall. 5stars

RIP Mark Margolis - fantastic actor!

How AL Pacino didn't win the Oscar for this role I will never understand.

"Watch my back!" "It's better than your front, let me tell you..." Best line in the movie!

Ya know this scene is low key hilarious. I mean, they're straight up having an argument in front of the plug 😂

Every scene is potentially the best scene in Scarface.

F Murray is great in the non-verbal pieces too. The way he clatters his cutlery when Tony asks Sosa "Are you nuts?" is a little gem.

I loved this scene in the movie because it was the turning point for everything that proceeded. Tony's defiance and disrespect to Omar is what keeps him alive in Sosa's eyes. But his knowledge also puts him in good graces with Sosa and bad graces with Frank eventually.....this was the takeoff point

If godfather and Scarface taught us anything it’s to never show internal discord infront of outsiders

Love how Sosa was feeling em out by tossing out a number that anyone who was really lookin to do business would scoff at. Among other things, the offense Tony took to that number let Sosa know he was solid.

Tony Montana and Antonio ("Amadeus") SALIERI ; and Doctor ("Le Grand Bleu") Lawrence ... Great trio nostalgia.

They don’t make movies like this anymore

The way Pacino says " Frank is going to love it, don't worry about it " is classic

That little sound effect at 1:10 is one of my all time favorites. So ominous and scary even.

The final shootout “say hello to my little friend”👍🏻

so this is where salamanca got his start in the drug business!

This scene resonates with so many people because at one time or another we've all been in a situation where we could have stepped up and taken a chance. Some of us did...and others didn't. But we all recognise that this is the moment Tony went from an errand boy to a Boss...

Watched it recently in Ultra HD 4K quality, wow, it’s a masterpiece of a movie.

Any scene Al Pacino is in is the greatest

I love the dynamic between Omar & Tony 😂 it’s painfully obvious that they hate each other’s guts and are struggling to work together

Imagine how great Tony would've been had he listened to ONE thing Frank told him and it is this..."Don't get high on your own supply"

Brian De Palma's scenes are better than most other director's entire movies. This is a master class on blocking, camera placement and shooting dialogue.

I had the good luck to meet Mark Margolis one day. Told him his performance knocked me out. That I really thought he was a Colombian who didn't even speak English.

That line was soooooo aristocratic... “My associates here can escort you to my chopper. The chopper will take you to Santa Cruz. I have a jet there can have you in Miami in...5 hours. You’ll be *back here tomorrow* in time for lunch.”

As soon as I get back to Miami, I'll talk to Frank personally 👍

Hector Salamanca came a long way since holding phones for other people.

I love how Tony is the only one that ate his plate, dude doesn't believe in wasting food!

Al Pacino’s character clearly dominates this scene…..simply amazing

"Better than your front, lemme tell you, thats easy to watch" LMAO, savage Tony!

When you include the rest of this scene I agree it is one of the best.

This scene is amazing! Tony's personality and intelligence come through, he's not just a lackey. He very effectively displayed his worth and Sosa, being very shrewd, recognized it. Tony detailed the practical logistical challenges of getting the yayo from Panama to Miami, and how accepting that burden should impact Sosa's price... they would be splitting the costs, and risks, of getting the product to market 50/50. All the other drug dealers Sosa dealt with were not nearly as business savvy as Tony. If Tony could not back up his logic, Sosa would have been insulted and may have killed him along with Omar.

1:09 Love how that music always starts when something either violent or consequential is about to pop off. It also plays when Sosa tells Tony not to ever cross him, and foreshadows Tony's downfall.

When a low level kingpin assistant tells the most powerful kingpin that he must adjust his pricing you know the dude is going to be among the best

its crazy that the guy who ends up killing Tony is right there behind them with the shades Sosa took no losses in this movie, it would be crazy to see a movie from the perspective of his empire

The best part of this scene is when Omar is telling him to shut up and learn something while Tony eats the lemon in the water he was supposed to wash his fingers in, proving that Omar was correct that Tony was out of his element to begin with and was just flying by the seat of his pants. It was a very subtle moment in the scene, but it said so much

This scene is a very powerful scene. The moment when tony ate the lemon in the water that was actually meant to was hands with. That was the moment Mr sosa realized that tony wasn’t exposed to rich life and that he was a humble man.

Tony eating the lemon always kills me.

Tony never misses a chance to say and do more 🤣

I always thought the incredible panning camera from the room where the drug deal is going wrong down to the guys in the car, back up to the room, but slow, real slow, was the best shot or scene in the movie. But this scene was incredibly well written and incredibly well acted as well. This scene is a masterclass in filmmaking.

Agreed.. Also, to me, showcases just how talented F. Murray Abraham is as an actor who steals the scene here. His expressions and voice inflection betray his annoyance with Tony because he sees he's actually being pushed aside and his authority stepped over and KNOWS he doesn't have the balls Montana does to back it up. You can clearly see what's about to happen in all 3 of their faces. Tony isn't going to take a NO from Omar. Souza closely watching their body language and clearly sees a future business partner in Tony and Omar realizing if he doesn't assert his authority here he's eventually replaced when he gets back to Miami. Brilliant writing, directing and casting..

Historic scene. You have F. Murray Abraham who played a prolific Mobster later in life (Al Capone) and then you have Mark Margolis who plays Tio Hector Salamanca, one of the most feared Mob bosses on TV (Breaking Bad)

Everyone talks about how great this scene is with perfect dialogue- body language - thoughts etc But you also have to take notice on Tony’s wardrobe - how Tony is dressed like a boss and the colors makes him look like a boss- his gangster lean etc…. This movie was thought out from every angle --

Everyone knows Omar's fate in this scene but imagine watching this scene for the first time. The intensity was off the charts. You know Alberto and Sosa are discussing something about Omar or Tony, you just don't who they're talking about. And you just KNOW they are going to kill or harm one or both of them you just don't know for sure. The way Alberto motions at them with the telephone at 1:27 and then motions with his head at the Skull to "go ahead and do your thing" at 2:05 is textbook dramatic tension: no dialogue, just action, pure and simple, and totally fat-free filmmaking. We know something bad is going to happen to Omar or Tony. We just don't know when or why until we see Omar drop out of the helicopter and tension is relieved only by the shock of the moment. This movie is probably the greatest ever made if you are into filmcraft and filmmaking!

They’re actually arguing in front of the boss lmao 😂

Tony is somehow seems getting very comfortable with himself through out the scene. Dude just got the confident.

People, stay away from drugs.

"The prince of darkness is a gentleman" -William Shakespeare. That's Sosa to a T. A gentleman devil. A sophisticated demon. A villain with class. Great casting.

This is hands down the best scene of the movie. The negotiations, the brunch, and the absolute brilliance of both Tony and Sosa sticking to their words until the very end. Classic.

Absolute classic movie. The Best Al Pacino performance in a stellar career.

I swear ive seen this movie 30-40 times, however this was from the eyes of a teenager. Oh my, watching this scene over again, 30-35 years later, through my much older eyes and through the commenters perspectives, there are so many intricate details and nuances I never noticed. Thanks guys, Im rewatching this as soon as the kids go to bed 😂

This scene also builds the characters of the assassins. Omar is shuttled into the hands of the killers and they did a great job showcasing the subtle presence of the characters.

I love how Omar walks away from this scene thinking that Montana will get killed for being too overenthusiastic without realizing that he's the one who's about to be tortured and killed!

Yes, it was one of the very best scenes. Especially how it begins with that Cochabamba music looking over the Bolivian mountains.

I loved Sosa's expression after Tony says "Thirteen five? What are you nuts?" I don't know if this is the best scene in the movie but when I think of the movie this scene often comes to mind first. I guess the helicopter scene that follows is a little too graphic for YT but that scene is very important because it shows Tony that Sosa isn't just another Frank. Tony has met his match and Sosa is much worse than Tony because Sosa has no problem sacrificing women and children to keep his empire. Tony draws the line at women and children.

Just one of many great scenes.

In my opinion Al Pacino is the GOAT of actor!

I love this movie, I’ve seen it probably 12-15 times and I still enjoy it. Almost a 40 year old movie and it holds its value so well

The best scene from Scarface.... Every scene!

I remember when Howard Stern said 20+ years ago that this was the greatest film ever made and it's definitely at the top.

al pacino at his best...masterpiece.

Love this scene. It has everything in it. One of the most realistic looking scenes. The detail is off the chain. Even the fact that Pacinos character eats the lemon in the finger washing bowl adds to that uncouth uncultured person that his character was. Knows nothing about the finer things in life but has the money made from being a natural born hustler and street thug. As they say game recognises game.

“Okay, fuck you.. how’s that” 💀

Great scene, but it's like asking a musician to pick their favorite song. They're all brilliant-keep these vids coming!

Interesting theory: what if Omar was never an informant and that Sosa wanted to manipulate the Lopez organization by giving Tony more authority?

Ridiculously-superior filmmaking in every way. The acting, editing, camerawork, EVERYTHING. This is what can happen when you have a passionate crew working towards a masterpiece that pushes the envelope. This is one of those rare films that was more of an "event" than just a movie.

Two things I always notice in this scene: 1./ When the servants bring the bowls of lemon water to the table (at 2:00 ), Tony, being ignorant of the way rich people eat, begins to munch on the lemon in the bowl, thinking that it's just another course of the meal rather than a means to clean one's hands after eating. 2./ The killing of the F. Murray Abraham character at the end of this scene is sort of an on-screen revenge for Al Pacino since it was Abraham who allowed Pacino to get shot in the face in 1973's Serpico.

Tony eating the lemon with pure confidence not knowing it’s to clean his hands with gets me everytme

Love how south park parodied this scene

I love how Tony eats the Lemon in the dish. Shows how unclassy he is, it’s a disinfectant method and he ate it. Hilarious Also R.I.P Paul Shenar and Gino Silvia

Hector Salamanca was a servant in this scene 🎬

Every scene in Scarface is my favorite.

one of the reasons Tony was so brutal in negotiations, is cause Tony ALWAYS, knew the facts. Always!

One of the greatest scenes in cinema history.

The best scene? The whole bloody movie is the best scene! I can watch this movie over and over it never gets old , an icon of a movie.

Al pacino .... The master at work ... CLASS

I actually love Tony's first interaction with Omar and the whole dishwasher thing.

I bet no one noticed that the guy who finally killed him is standing right behind him lol

I love to look Sosa gives Tony everything he speaks up

I like the foreshadowing of the hitman behind Tony !

Best part is Tony Montana casually eating the orange in the finger bowl, only for Omar to use it to wash his hands.

Incredible acting - all of three of them. Conveying the right emotions and sentiments

The best scene in Scarface is the part between the beginning and the end.

The scene is classic. Tony's ascend into the being the ' shotcaller'.

TBH... the best scene from Scarface is literally all scenes in the movie.. it's that perfect.

I've watched this scene alone so many times, it's awesome. Tony establishes himself fearlessly the whole scene.

This scene and also my favourite execution of Frank Lopez & Mel Bernstein.

One does not simply watch a single scene from Scarface👌

I love it! He ate the lemon in the water that was meant for washing his hands the guy looked at him and noticed but was so polite he never said a word. Lol! Awesome scene!

I never noticed before that after Sosa got off the phone, Alberto motioned the guy with the shades over, he knew it was that time to dangle Omar from the helicopter lol

I could watch this movie a million times and still find something new, crazy!!!

I was today years old when I realized Omar = Salieri. What a great actor.
