This week we say hello to the little friend as A DePalmber to ReMalmber begins with 1983's Scarface, directed by Brian DePalma, written by Oliver Stone, and starring Al Pacino, Michelle Pfeiffer, Steven Bauer, Mary Elizabeth Mastrantonio, Robert Loggia, F. Murray Abraham, Harris Yulin, Mark Margolis, and Richard Belzer. It's an opulent operatic journey to the American Dream, a slick and stylish directorial effort that truly proves subtlety is for cowards. It's an unseen from J Mo's collection that's been gathering dust for north of 17 years, and though a bout with COVID prevented him from joining us for the entire episode, Elite Prospects and EP Rinkside editor-in-chief J.D. Burke calls in and leaves a voicemail in defense of a hot couch classic, and one of his all-time faves.

Other works discussed in this episode include Fight Club, Joker, Terminator: Salvation, Top Gun: Maverick, No Hard Feelings, Thanksgiving, Grindhouse, Totally Killer, The Final Girls, Freaky, Happy Death Day, Hostel, the Scream franchise, Payback, Pokerface, Paul T. Goldman, Friday Night Lights, Breaking Bad, Independence Day, Over The Top, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, Macbeth, GoodFellas, Casino, The Irishman, Jack & Jill, Heat, Dog Day Afternoon, and Hunters, among others.

If you'd like to watch the film before listening to our discussion, Scarface is currently streaming in Canada on Netflix, Amazon Prime and Starz at the time of publication.

We'll be back next week as A DePalmber to ReMalmber continues with Carlito's Way, a movie currently streaming on Amazon Prime in Canada. Until then, see you at the movies!
