Trivia

When Tony meets with his lawyer after being caught, the lawyer states that he can get Tony acquitted from the drugs charges, but he will get sent to jail for tax evasion. Al Capone - the real life "Scarface" - was convicted and sent to prison for this very same crime. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Entry When Al Pacino, in the Babylon Club, tells Frank that the only thing that gives orders in this world is balls, Frank and Evira leave eventually. Then Manny sits with Al and Al blames Frank for setting him up to grease Mel the detective. Steven asks how he knows this, to which Al replies, "Who else knew about Ribenga? Omar?" If you go to the beginning of the film Al discusses the Ribenga hit with Omar when Omar is in the car near the sandwich place. [So where's the plot hole? Tony was saying that he thinks Omar would not set him up, but that Frank would.]

Entry When we first see Tony and Manny working in the USA in the food store Manny's customer makes a very interesting Spanish comment, if you translate the Spanish subtitles into English you will find a very interesting referral to Al Pachino's acting career. [Unless the translated comment is provided, this entry should not be considered trivia.]

Entry When Tony is being questioned by the police after being picked up for being caught on film counting money, the policeman asks him about the murder at the Sun Ray Motel. The murders occurred at the Carlyle, not Sun Ray. You can see the hotel's name when Tony and Manny drive up to make the drug deal. [The Carlyle is on the corner of the street they turn right on. This is not the hotel they entered. Tony and his crew drive at least one full block before making the U turn and parking across from the hotel. Furthermore, in the crane shot leading from the bathroom window to the car across the street, we can see part of the motel sign reads: "R-A-Y".]
Entry Tony's scar changes size, shape, direction, and color through out the movie and sometimes isn't even there. [The scar doesn't change at all. It's because of the light that it looks bigger or smaller or that it looks like it has another colour.]
Entry In the scene where they are pulling up to the motel for the drug connection, they do a U-Turn at the intersection. On the corner there is a USA Today newspaper machine. That newspaper wasn't developed until 1982....years after the sequence in the movie was to have taken place. [I know that USA did not come into being until 1982 however, the Mariel Boatlift started about May 1980, continuing for a while. How are we to know for sure if the timeline for the motel was not perhaps a year or so later? We really do not know how long Tony and Al worked at the cuban cafe before Omar showed up with the deal to be made.]
Entry In the New York scene, Tony is following the politician's car. However, he never stops for a red light and runs at least one red light without having to avoid any oncoming cars. [They only run one red-light - to keep up with the car they're following - and immediately afterwards there is the sound of other cars hooting. This scene looks and sounds realistic.]
Entry During the first deal that goes wrong a guy gets chained to the pipe above the bath tub then decapitated by the chansaw. After that Al Pacino gets chained to the pipe. While the Columbian is starting the chainsaw he gets shot up. In the next scene Al Pacino isn't chained to the pipe. He grabs the guy with the gun and there are no handcuffs around his wrists. [Tony's hands aren't cuffed. The chain is wrapped around his wrists and held by one of the Columbians. The chain loosens when the Columbian gets shot.]
