In 1983, Brian De Palma and Al Pacino set out to make a movie so bold, violent, and unapologetic that it almost destroyed their careers. Instead, they created a cultural phenomenon that would go on to influence generations of rappers, hustlers, and dreamers.

In this explosive opening episode of The World Is Yours: A Scarface Podcast, we go behind the scenes of the making of Scarface — the chaos, the controversy, and the near-disasters that nearly killed the film before it could become a legend.

Discover:

• How Oliver Stone wrote the script after riding with Miami narcotics cops
• The intense Miami backlash from the Cuban exile community
• The infamous chainsaw scene that almost earned an X rating
• Al Pacino snorting mountains of fake cocaine (and what it did to his nose)
• Giorgio Moroder’s legendary synth score and the birth of “Push It to the Limit”
• Why the movie bombed in theaters… and then exploded on VHS

From protests and death threats to one of the greatest comeback stories in cinema history — this is the wild true story of how Scarface was made.
