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...

Continuity: Tony tells Nick to call Lopez at exactly 3:00. The scene goes on with Lopez and Bernstein dying when they ask Ernie if he wants a job. The clock says 3:03 but, from the time the call was made at 3am to the next time we see the clock next to Ernie, 5 min and 25 sec have passed.

Continuity: Just before Michele throws the drink in Al's face, when they keep cutting from her to the others, her body position is different each time. Sometimes, she is leaning forward, with her left hand on the drink, other times she is leaning back, with her right hand up holding out her cigarette. When the camera is on Al and you just see her in the frame, her body is still, inconsistent with her body position changes.

Continuity: In the scenes after Omar is killed in the helicopter, Sosa and Montana are talking business gangster style. Montana's body shifts positions all the time as the cam cuts, one time he is standing with his arms akimbo, next he is bringing his hands to his hips, and all the time his body's angle is shifting.

Continuity: In the scene where they are having dinner at the Babylon Club, the waiter brings them champagne and when they all raise their glasses to toast, Tony has a cigar in his mouth. The camera cuts away and then cuts back to Tony about to take a drink of champagne and the cigar is now gone. There was not enough time to take out the cigar. A second later the cigar is back.

Continuity: In the scene when Tony goes visit his mother, Gina hugs him and you can appreciate her long and neat nails. Right after the hug, Tony gives her a present that she opens, and then the camera shows only the jewel and (supposedly) Gina's hands touching it. These hands have really short and not so neat nails. You can see Gina's long nails again at the end of the scene when she holds Tony again outside by the car.

Revealing: As soon as Tony shoots Hector out on the street, the shot changes angles to see Hector's body fall face down. It may be a stunt-double because this person's hair is completely different from the actor playing Hector. Before Hector is shot, his hair is completely combed. As his body is falling, his hair is suddenly completely uncombed (To me it seems the double's head is bald on top and with a tiny pony-tail, but that's probably just me). After he falls his hair seems back to being combed-over.

Audio problem: At Tony's interrogation at the Immigration Office, the voices of two of the INS Officers are shoddily dubbed over. This error is made even more noticeable by the fact that the first officer has been replaced by the distinct voice of actor Charles Durning.

Continuity: While Manny and Tony are working at the bar, before starting in the drug business, Tony has a towel over his right shoulder. Depending on the angle the towel covers part of his spine or it doesn't.

Revealing: At the end of the infamous chainsaw scene Tony takes an automatic pistol away from one of the Colombians after a struggle in the shower. Tony pushes the Columbian away, extends the pistol and fires a round. You see the gun's hammer drop and the muzzle flashes, but the slide does not cycle, a clear sign that blanks were being used.

Continuity: When Tony is supposed to do the assassination for Sosa they are following the man and his family in a car. There are two beer cans and chinese food containers on the dashboard. When it shows Tony and the rest of the people in the car one of the cans is smashed. When it shows the view of the car in front of them it isn't smashed. The can changes from scene to scene.
