Tony grew up poor so Sosa looked at him like he could trust him to work with him. He Never grew to a Rich lifestyle like Everyone else but looked at Sosa's place as a Rich environment. That's why when Tony ate the lemon that Sosa's servants gave to Tony and Omar after the phone call he got from Alberto he Looked at Tony and knew he can take him in and Questioned him about him Not being a Chivato like Omar.
It's probably written as Tony Montana never actually fully understanding rich behavior (and Sosa realizing he can capitalize on this). However, in my head canon, I like to think it's just Al Pacino actually not knowing and he ate it because he was hungry
Little details the build character - Tony eats the lemon slice in the hand washing bowl showing his ignorance of the ways of wealthy people - Sosa is big enough to afford two elite hitmen (Don hector & shades) always on call - Sosa testing Tony’s character by questioning frank’s judgement. Hinting that Tony was not off the hook yet until… - Tony defends frank and shows loyalty, honor and being a man of his word. Excellent character building with just one scene
well, i am certainly not one to make fun of montana in that lemon scene, not only did i eat the lemon but i also sipped the liquid from the bowl in a sophisticated-like manner. i have all the class and elegance of an african spider monkey.

I read it as he thought Tony was a dead man. If a mob boss wanted someone to stay for a while so they tell him "how to run his business", first thought I'd have is they're a goner. Omar tried to protect him for a second saying Frank wanted to see him, but when Tony said he'd stay he probably thought "well I never liked you anyway bye"

@@devastationofmankind3495To understand that segment of the talk between Sosa and Tony you need to know about the Hispanic/Cuban culture, I am Cuban 58 years old can help you to understand that kind of talk from Tony. First Sosa was telling Tony, asking Tony if he was a CHIVATO, now in the Cuban street talk a CHIVATO is a snitch, there are 3 things you cannot tell an old timer Cuban man: Snitch, Homosexual or insulting his mother, those are the biggest insults you can shoot to an old timer Cuban man we kill over that. Now Tony was playing a Cuban character and he played very well. He fired back at Sosa in a very serious challenging way taking no shit from Sosa settling everything straight between him and Sosa.
I love that moment at 6:03 when Tony is processing Sosa's warning. Sosa is probably the only character in the movie whose power Tony truly respects. Because of that, I think this is the only time Tony doesn't immediately dismiss a threat with his usual bravado.
At this stage Tony is still small, he knows who not to give attitude. But once he got up there he no longer was scared. cause he had his own protection.
@@AllenHanPR I get what you're saying but I think it has to do a lot more with how he read people and not his place in the food chain. For example, he was small when he met Frank Lopez but he immediately began to disrespect him and see him as weak. During Tony's first meeting with Sosa, Sosa immediately showed his power by having Omar killed and giving Tony a clear cut warning not to fuck him. I think Tony turning his back on Sosa ultimately had to do with Tony's own morals about women and children, his increasing paranoia due to getting high on his own supply, and as you said, his higher position in the food chain compared to when he first met Sosa.
And yet he was still willing to die right there on Sosa's turf rather than be called a liar or a narc. Tony was fearless. Even if he was often a bad guy, he was unwaveringly courageous and wasn't about to let anybody call him a rat, even Sosa. He stared down a chainsaw 2 inches from his face without flinching. You may get Tony's respect, but he will never be afraid of you.
@@Kryptic1046 I agree that Tony was generally fearless and that he stuck to his guns. But that's part of the point I'm trying to highlight. Despite Tony's general fearlessness, even he took a pause when Sosa warned him, and that's what I love about that moment. I don't think he was necessarily scared of Sosa's warning, he just knew it carried weight and had to be taken seriously.
@@albertov1837 - Truth. I agree that Sosa was the only character Tony genuinely respected.

It was his undoing, but man what a flourish on the way out. I frickin' love this movie.
The missed point of this scene was Sosa was originally going to kill both of them if they didn't make the deal he wanted. He killed Omar because he knew Tony would force the partner deal with Frank. He is extremely smart. He used Tony the entire time as his mule, until Tony got careless, then Sosa wiped him out. The real villian of this film is Sosa, but that often gets overlooked by Al's strong performance as Tony. Sosa has all the political connections, has all the product, has all the money, has an army at his disposal, and did exactly what he said he would do. Hes the one with the balls and his word at the end.
For Tony to eat the lemon out the bowl, that, alone, should've won him a Oscar for this; because of where he came from, it showed that he had no idea it was a washing bowl.
It was a power move. Sosa could’ve killed Omar in a thousand different ways. He did this way to intimidate Tony to sense his weakness. Montana didn’t flinch. He was alone in someone else’s compound watching his associate just died a gruesome death. He understood fears had no place in that world. He never backed down, be it chainsaw in the face or a rope on a helicopter.
I think Sosa always looked down at Tony. Like Sosa knew Tony was beneath him. And at the end when Sosa is on the phone with Tony, that’s when he lets his true feelings be shown.
@@tony_dogs when Sosa saw Tony eating that lemon in the finger washing dish, that’s when sosa realized that Tony wasn’t too bright and that he could absolutely use him.
Very powerful scene that shows the essence of both Tony and Sosa. Fast forward towards the end after Tony refused to carry out the hit for Sosa and their heated final exchange “I told you long ago never to fck me, you little monkey!”
@@MrK1kk3r No Sosa would've understood that Tony still fked him. All he needed Tony to do was to protect his hitman while they did all the heavy lifting.
@@MrK1kk3rNo, in the criminal world, you are required to lose all your morality and conscience. You think Sosa gave a fuck about some woman and two kids he’s never even met? Fuck no, he’s got a business to protect at all costs. That’s what Tony didn’t understand and that was his downfall.
The best comfort movies have repeatability, they are always rewatch-able, they never get old - even if you can quote every line of dialogue in your sleep. That's why every dude I know owns his own copy of Scarface on some form of physical media. Yes, I have a copy on DVD. Also, great movies like this one give men something to connect on, like realizing you both cheer for the same sports team. A great way to find kindred spirits. #NationalFilmBoardofChinada
@@adamsaintgermain4149 Yeah... but that is the definition of a classic. It would be like saying "You can eat a banana countless times and it stills winds up being yellow and tasty". It is a pointless comment. Amongst most of those on the internet. Including this one.
In 0:35 when Omar says watch my back you see the skull (the guy in sunglasses) and killed both Omar and Tony from behind as he pushes Omar from behind when he falls out of the helicopter and he shoots and kills Tony from behind
The whole movie was an entire lesson on how drugdealing is full of backstabbing and the people who were supposed to watch your back are often the ones that stab you in it
The actor who played Sosa was the highly accomplished actor and director Paul Shenar. Sadly, he died of AIDS-related complications in 1989. Gone too soon.
Mr. Sosa was played by Paul Shenar who was also the voice of Ford commercials at the time. I was in a Broadway production of "Macbeth" with him in 1988. He was a nice guy who sadly died of AIDS a little over a year after I worked with him. He was only 53.
Sadly it hit and killed a nearby henchman and Sosa had to inform his wife and children about the tragedy, people never think about how things effect the family of a henchman.
In the original audio, before it was massively altered for the Blu Ray release, you didn’t hear anything from the chopper. Only except Omar screaming when he was dropped to his death. So it wasn’t Brian DePalma that did that. It was those jackass film distribution companies that keep altering the sound effects of the classics for the Blu Ray releases.
That's a real good point, bro. But idk if u remember back in the day they had binoculars that not only amplyed vision but amplyfied sound.😅😅😅.@anthonymoody3826
Yeah, I have to admit, I had no idea about the concept of the lemon water was intended for handwashing and that eating the lemon slice was tantamount to ignorance.
Sometimes in executions by hanging, the victims go to the gallows in their socks, to avoid the shoes flying off their feet when they come to the end of the rope. For example the four executed in July 1865 for involvement in the Lincoln assassination are clearly not wearing shoes, in photos taken of them on the gallows.
He was and was the informant for Frank’s court case. Earlier when Omar said that’s why Frank couldn’t come, Sosa realized Omar was just there to tell the feds where his location was. He was never leaving the compound and neither was Tony until Tony started talking shop about moving the product and Sosa realized Tony was legit while Omar was in a rush to leave instead of make money.
The scene from 3:47 to 4:34 is one my favourites from scarface. Tony couldn’t have worded this any better to get out of the tense situation he was in especially when he just witnessed Omar getting killed off and his life was also on the line.
It’s speculation on my part, but after Tony mentioned how Omar effectively caused Angel Fernandez’ death, I suspect that was when Sosa realized Tony wasn’t an informant, either. That was way too specific.
He established Tony was a different animal altogether earlier than that just observing Tony's interaction with Omar. It was clear they were on two different teams working for the same boss with nothing else in common.
@@oldtwinsna8347thing was that Tony and Sosa knew Omar had to be dealt with even though it was for different reasons remember eariler he set Tony Manny and Angel up and Angel got killed in the fight and he also was an informant for the FBI who as we find out put 2 of Sosa's ppl away for life Lopez however never knew what Omar really was let alone what he's done to Tony's crew and Sosa's
@@redhawk44109why tony still was hanging around a man who was fucking wit someone who killed his friend and plus tony killed his friend Tony wasn't shit he was lame a fuck boi
All those goons yet Mark Margolis was the creepiest and scariest for me, just gives of that eerie vibe thats why the character is comfortable killing kids. He nailed that role.
absolutely! i`ve seen him in a few different roles and as you said he plays an incredibly disturbing and eerie character. margolis was a prominent character in breaking bad as well as being in an episode of `law & order`. both equally chilling.
3:30 I believe that guy was just giving Omar a quick air tour and got a little too out of hand with excitement. "If you look farther, you can see some beautiful hilltops and below that is a huge plot of our coffee plants! I always love this view.....if you look closer.....oops, sorry sir, didn't mean to push you!"
Most people learned about it from TH-cam. There's a couple videos explaining the significance of the lemon bowl in the scene. After that, everyone started acting like they knew the whole time. I definitely learned from TH-cam.
@@toddgrogg8005Honestly probably yes Tony is definitely loyal so he probably would protect him out of loyalty but I think what would have happened was if Tony left with Omar then they probably would have grabbed Tony and held him down and started beating Omar to death in front of him while doing so explaining to Tony that he is an informant he is working with the feds then Tony would probably just calm down and probably be ok with them killing Omar in front of him.
Sosa is so smooth, he manages to fool 90% of the viewing audience of this movie. There was never any partnership. Tony never struck a single deal with him. Sosa saw a conceited, stupid fool and manipulated him into effectively doing his bidding. As such, the movie ends with Sosa thriving and Tony lying face-down in a vanity fountain.
Yours is the first comment to mention Amadeus. I only referenced Last Action Hero. I guess that means you win. Congratulations. #NationalFilmBoardofChinada
There was another scene in the director's cut where Tony meets Sosa's wife on horseback. Then they cut to Tony saying, " I got to hand it to you, Mr. Sosa..." and it makes more sense.
I think the point is that, in the shady underworld where all these deals are made, there are times where you can't know, and you have to decide if you want to keep going, or cut ties, depending on whether or not the truth or lie matters. For Tony, Omar was one of his biggest obstacles to advancement, so it didn't really matter if he was a rat or not, because either way it worked out for him. Besides, when Sosa brought him in to that meeting of various officials to discuss the hit on that journalist and his family, Tony was able to size things up and know to a certainty that Sosa considered him to be a minion at best.
I think it was a hint that he was an informant because it was mentioned that Lopez was unable to make the trip to Bolivia because of having to be on trial
@leighwright3450 well Tony threatened him and it looked like Omar was reaching for a weapon when the driver suggested to give him the Colombians so it is open to interpretation
@@tonynomikos3702ugh. There was even a dedication at the end of this film to the original actor in the original scarface. Go get cultured and watch the original.
@@drygnfyre That is how you survive in an environment like that. Get paid well, do your job, and keep quiet, and go and pray at home that you will make it the next day.
I think the small arguments and back and forth between tony and the other guy pretty much saved Tony. Sosa knew that they both were not on the same page and could sense that Tony wasnt part of the whole snitching informant ordeal. It was perfect timing for them to be bickering back and forth in front of Sosa and shows that Tony was real and didnt care to say how he felt even in front of someone as poweful as Sosa and he saw that and didnt kill him.
actor for role, pacino hits montana off hard and real good. you dont get this kind of genuinity these days. dedication to dramatic persona like this is off the charts.
There was of course no phone call. Sosa's body gard asked for the order to take Omar out so Tony could take over Frank's business (and wife!) and ramp up sales with Sosa.
@Joshua-xg7pg because he knows where ur operations are now, if you let him go you risk getting pinched. This was the 80's the DEA was literally militarily sweeping through central and south America
Frank strongly implies he was not a rat, and may have even had Omar killed to put Tony in harness. We don't really know..if he had put two high level drug dealers away as a informant Frank probably would have known.
Looking back to it, I was wondering if the whole point of killing Omar was to actually get better influence on Frank's business. It was clearly visible that Tony was a young impetuous, hot-headed person blinded by his ambitions and envious of Sosa's status, which makes him easy to manipulate Why would they kill their main business partner's right hand man spontaneously?
These movies always taught me how to read the subtitles in people’s body language.. Sosa looked at the other guy with such distaste and disdain.. then offered him to leave but told Tony to stay to isolate him into his demise
Love Shenar as an actor, sad that he died I think 5 or so years after this from AIDS related causes, also was really good in the underrated Schwarzenegger film Raw Deal.
5:07 This is where Sosa sees that Tony is loyal, he doesn't through Frank under the bus and clearly states it could happen to anyone. I like to think that Sosa realized Tony's value right here, especially after boldly stating that he [Tony] doesn't break his word or b*lls for anyone.
I love that he eats the lemon out of the finger washing bowl. He has no idea what it's for.
Sosa noticed that too.
Tony grew up poor so Sosa looked at him like he could trust him to work with him. He Never grew to a Rich lifestyle like Everyone else but looked at Sosa's place as a Rich environment. That's why when Tony ate the lemon that Sosa's servants gave to Tony and Omar after the phone call he got from Alberto he Looked at Tony and knew he can take him in and Questioned him about him Not being a Chivato like Omar.
its not for eating? How rich are u dude?
I didn't know either what its for. So you don't wash your hands after eating lemons
It's probably written as Tony Montana never actually fully understanding rich behavior (and Sosa realizing he can capitalize on this). However, in my head canon, I like to think it's just Al Pacino actually not knowing and he ate it because he was hungry

Very powerful scene that shows the essence of both Tony and Sosa. Fast forward towards the end after Tony refused to carry out the hit for Sosa and their heated final exchange “I told you long ago never to fck me, you little monkey!”
Tony refused because there is one rule above all else: no women, no children. Sosa wouldve understood if he'd known.
@@MrK1kk3r No Sosa would've understood that Tony still fked him. All he needed Tony to do was to protect his hitman while they did all the heavy lifting.
@@MrK1kk3rNo, in the criminal world, you are required to lose all your morality and conscience. You think Sosa gave a fuck about some woman and two kids he’s never even met? Fuck no, he’s got a business to protect at all costs. That’s what Tony didn’t understand and that was his downfall.

It's fucked up, but like Pacho Herrera said in Narcos;

Dude with the sunglasses.. nobody knew he would be the one to put Montana down. And this scene here hits hard

I think he's supposed to be The Grim Reaper. His name in the movie is "The Skull" after all

the skull is just an assassin, no talk.
Yooo thats crazy bc he ended up killing Montana by shooting him in the back and in this scene he was introduced directly behind Tony

The best comfort movies have repeatability, they are always rewatch-able, they never get old - even if you can quote every line of dialogue in your sleep.
That's why every dude I know owns his own copy of Scarface on some form of physical media. Yes, I have a copy on DVD.
Also, great movies like this one give men something to connect on, like realizing you both cheer for the same sports team.
A great way to find kindred spirits.

Mr. Sosa was played by Paul Shenar who was also the voice of Ford commercials at the time. I was in a Broadway production of "Macbeth" with him in 1988. He was a nice guy who sadly died of AIDS a little over a year after I worked with him. He was only 53.

He played that part of a drug kingpin very well. His eyes were scary and on point.
RIP🙏🙏🙏
He had a great voice.

@@StandInTheFire no. It was the actor going full method.
@@Banana_Split_Cream_BunsI don't think so coz the head wud have lost its body with that length of rope.
Amazing how he can be heard over the chopper noise
What's more amazing is that it's a movie and the director's wanted us to hear him over the chopper noise... THAT'S AMAZING! How did they do that? Geez
@@anthonymoody3826it is truly amazing.
In the original audio, before it was massively altered for the Blu Ray release, you didn’t hear anything from the chopper.
Only except Omar screaming when he was dropped to his death.
So it wasn’t Brian DePalma that did that.
It was those jackass film distribution companies that keep altering the sound effects of the classics for the Blu Ray releases.
That's a real good point, bro. But idk if u remember back in the day they had binoculars that not only amplyed vision but amplyfied sound.😅😅😅.@anthonymoody3826

Yeah, I have to admit, I had no idea about the concept of the lemon water was intended for handwashing and that eating the lemon slice was tantamount to ignorance.
That's one of my favorite quotes to use. "Okay. Fuck you, how's that?"
Tony keeps looking up at the sky despite the helicopter now being 5 km away across the valley.
I love the foreshadowing when Tony told Sosa that having an Omar Suarez in your organization could happen to anyone, even him.
The look on Omar’s face as he was walking away makes me think that he could have been a stoolie.
I never liked that pizza chit
I agree 100% the way he was looking down the whole time he was walking away he knew he was fucked
@@thert.hon.thelordnicholson7261
For all I know, he had me set up and had my friend Angel Hernandez killed.
But that then. This now.
He did set Tony up. With that motel drug exchange. Cost his friend his life.
@@We_Are_Borg_478yeah that was in the clip we all watched.
The shoe falling off at the last second is perfect
Yup.
Sometimes in executions by hanging, the victims go to the gallows in their socks, to avoid the shoes flying off their feet when they come to the end of the rope. For example the four executed in July 1865 for involvement in the Lincoln assassination are clearly not wearing shoes, in photos taken of them on the gallows.
Just before the chopper leaves the frame, the dead body of Omar looses a shoe. Who else saw that?
0:27 he's mouthing "es un chivato" He's a snitch.
Well he was associated Mel Bernstein..that should count as a snitch
The guy with the sunglasses ends up shooting tony in the end

You want us to believe Omar was a stoolie because Sosa said so?! YOU bought that line.
Lol I see the title of the video says informant too. The uploader bought that line as well
If you listen to the clip, he says it
He was and was the informant for Frank’s court case. Earlier when Omar said that’s why Frank couldn’t come, Sosa realized Omar was just there to tell the feds where his location was. He was never leaving the compound and neither was Tony until Tony started talking shop about moving the product and Sosa realized Tony was legit while Omar was in a rush to leave instead of make money.
Maybe I made a mistake sending you down there…maybe you and SOSA know something I don’t know!
@@rangers7290 like what?
The scene from 3:47 to 4:34 is one my favourites from scarface. Tony couldn’t have worded this any better to get out of the tense situation he was in especially when he just witnessed Omar getting killed off and his life was also on the line.
It’s speculation on my part, but after Tony mentioned how Omar effectively caused Angel Fernandez’ death, I suspect that was when Sosa realized Tony wasn’t an informant, either. That was way too specific.
He established Tony was a different animal altogether earlier than that just observing Tony's interaction with Omar. It was clear they were on two different teams working for the same boss with nothing else in common.
@@oldtwinsna8347thing was that Tony and Sosa knew Omar had to be dealt with even though it was for different reasons remember eariler he set Tony Manny and Angel up and Angel got killed in the fight and he also was an informant for the FBI who as we find out put 2 of Sosa's ppl away for life Lopez however never knew what Omar really was let alone what he's done to Tony's crew and Sosa's
Good point.

All those goons yet Mark Margolis was the creepiest and scariest for me, just gives of that eerie vibe thats why the character is comfortable killing kids. He nailed that role.
absolutely! i`ve seen him in a few different roles and as you said he plays an incredibly disturbing and eerie character. margolis was a prominent character in breaking bad as well as being in an episode of `law & order`. both equally chilling.
3:30
I believe that guy was just giving Omar a quick air tour and got a little too out of hand with excitement.
"If you look farther, you can see some beautiful hilltops and below that is a huge plot of our coffee plants! I always love this view.....if you look closer.....oops, sorry sir, didn't mean to push you!"
Most of the people who comment about the lemon had no idea what the bowl is for the first time they saw the movie.
Not in Europe..
Yup. I sure didn't.
I only knew about it from books
Most people learned about it from TH-cam. There's a couple videos explaining the significance of the lemon bowl in the scene. After that, everyone started acting like they knew the whole time. I definitely learned from TH-cam.
It still makes me sad when i think of how my now deceased friend use to always crack up when Sosa called Tony a fukn little monkey.
This movie is littered with unintentionally funny moments.
There is a reason for it, and it the fact that Tony didn't know how to wash his hands. Instead of washing with the lemon and water he ate the lemon.

Omar wasn't stupid. He knew he was walking into danger, and he was reluctant to walk away without Tony as protection
Would Tony, have protected Omar??.
@@toddgrogg8005 Tony is still loyal. But that's irrelevant because it's Omar's thought
@@toddgrogg8005Honestly probably yes Tony is definitely loyal so he probably would protect him out of loyalty but I think what would have happened was if Tony left with Omar then they probably would have grabbed Tony and held him down and started beating Omar to death in front of him while doing so explaining to Tony that he is an informant he is working with the feds then Tony would probably just calm down and probably be ok with them killing Omar in front of him.
@@toddgrogg8005no because he stole his girl
Sosa is so smooth, he manages to fool 90% of the viewing audience of this movie.
There was never any partnership. Tony never struck a single deal with him. Sosa saw a conceited, stupid fool and manipulated him into effectively doing his bidding. As such, the movie ends with Sosa thriving and Tony lying face-down in a vanity fountain.

There was another scene in the director's cut where Tony meets Sosa's wife on horseback.
Then they cut to Tony saying, " I got to hand it to you, Mr. Sosa..." and it makes more sense.
Hector Salamanca found the rat, Lalo Salamanca was flying thr helicopter.

Great catch!

I always wished we had a hint that Suarez was really an informant.
For all we know this was Sosa trying to make a bigger sale
I think the point is that, in the shady underworld where all these deals are made, there are times where you can't know, and you have to decide if you want to keep going, or cut ties, depending on whether or not the truth or lie matters.
For Tony, Omar was one of his biggest obstacles to advancement, so it didn't really matter if he was a rat or not, because either way it worked out for him.
Besides, when Sosa brought him in to that meeting of various officials to discuss the hit on that journalist and his family, Tony was able to size things up and know to a certainty that Sosa considered him to be a minion at best.
I think it was a hint that he was an informant because it was mentioned that Lopez was unable to make the trip to Bolivia because of having to be on trial
And I think Omar did actually set Tony up in that drug deal in that hotel that went left
He even sounded disappointed when Tony called him and told him what happened at the hotel
@leighwright3450 well Tony threatened him and it looked like Omar was reaching for a weapon when the driver suggested to give him the Colombians so it is open to interpretation
Al Pacino was FABULOUS in this remake! Saw it in the movies. Never tire of it. Like the original movie too.

Sosa probably pays well enough for them not to care
"See everything, say nothing." The people who work at his manor know who he is and what he does, but he pays them well and they keep quiet.
@@drygnfyre That is how you survive in an environment like that. Get paid well, do your job, and keep quiet, and go and pray at home that you will make it the next day.
The slow tension build-up in this scene as it progresses into the 'unknown' for the first-time viewer was brilliantly captured.
I always found it ironic that had Tony listen to Omar even once he would be dead 💀
6:04 the eyes showed that this was the only time Tony ever showed fear
The eyes, Chico. They never lie.
That's apologizing not fear
Coz he killed 30 men of Sosa and give warning to Sosa at last scene
I think the small arguments and back and forth between tony and the other guy pretty much saved Tony. Sosa knew that they both were not on the same page and could sense that Tony wasnt part of the whole snitching informant ordeal. It was perfect timing for them to be bickering back and forth in front of Sosa and shows that Tony was real and didnt care to say how he felt even in front of someone as poweful as Sosa and he saw that and didnt kill him.
actor for role, pacino hits montana off hard and real good. you dont get this kind of genuinity these days. dedication to dramatic persona like this is off the charts.
Tony's pocket square is the real crime here
Damn 😂😂😂
RIP prolapsed pocket square
There was of course no phone call. Sosa's body gard asked for the order to take Omar out so Tony could take over Frank's business (and wife!) and ramp up sales with Sosa.

Good point. Sosa could read people well and probably knew that he’d have more control over Tony than Omar. Wonder how he feels in retrospect.
Idk the whole whisper in the ear thing, and Sosa's change in demeanor when he returns to the table heavily implies that he was a rat
@@zumis1011 Yeah, if the evidence isnt really strong enough then why risked pissing a customer by killing his trusted man.
@Joshua-xg7pg because he knows where ur operations are now, if you let him go you risk getting pinched. This was the 80's the DEA was literally militarily sweeping through central and south America
Frank strongly implies he was not a rat, and may have even had Omar killed to put Tony in harness. We don't really know..if he had put two high level drug dealers away as a informant Frank probably would have known.
You can tell who the dead man is when one of them is escorted by multiple goons, and the other is kept behind with only the boss.
Sosa oozes a confident, charming, ruthlessness. Very good actor playing him and very intimidating long stare here at 5:17 lol
His shoe fell off and then it managed to be tied up on every powerline in ever inner city in America.
You watch this again and realize he picked him as a "partner" because he's an easily manipulated pawn and simple-minded.
Looking back to it, I was wondering if the whole point of killing Omar was to actually get better influence on Frank's business. It was clearly visible that Tony was a young impetuous, hot-headed person blinded by his ambitions and envious of Sosa's status, which makes him easy to manipulate
Why would they kill their main business partner's right hand man spontaneously?
Because he’s a rat.
Cuz Frank was so soft. What was he gonna do?? Honestly
Tony may have the balls but Frank definitely got the brains "Low and straight"
These movies always taught me how to read the subtitles in people’s body language.. Sosa looked at the other guy with such distaste and disdain.. then offered him to leave but told Tony to stay to isolate him into his demise
Love Shenar as an actor, sad that he died I think 5 or so years after this from AIDS related causes, also was really good in the underrated Schwarzenegger film Raw Deal.
Hector Salamanca was born 60 years old and hasn't aged a day since
Especially since Tony ventilated his forehead in the car.
6:00
Tony: *"i dont swing that way sosa so you're all good"*
5:07 This is where Sosa sees that Tony is loyal, he doesn't through Frank under the bus and clearly states it could happen to anyone. I like to think that Sosa realized Tony's value right here, especially after boldly stating that he [Tony] doesn't break his word or b*lls for anyone.
