Scarface (also known as Scarface: The Shame of the Nation and The Shame of a Nation) is a 1932 American pre-Code gangster film directed by Howard Hawks and produced by Hawks and Howard Hughes. The screenplay, by Ben Hecht, is based loosely on the novel first published in 1930 by Armitage Trail, which inspired Al Capone. The film stars Paul Muni as Italian immigrant gangster Antonio “Tony” Camonte, who violently rises through the Chicago gangland, with a supporting cast that includes George Raft and Boris Karloff. Camonte’s rise to power dovetails with his relentless pursuit of his boss’s mistress while his sister pursues his best hitman. In an overt tie to the life of Capone, a version of the Saint Valentine’s Day Massacre is depicted.- Wikipedia
