Scarface

Before anyone gets all excited that this is a review of the Pacino/DePalma version of Scarface, Ryan's latest solo show actually focuses on the Hawks/Muni version. The 1983 "little friend" comes up a lot though, so it's almost like getting 2 reviews in 1. And you should be just as excited about the 1932 original anyway because Paul Muni, director Howard Hawks and producer Howard Hughes (yup, him) teamed up to make a true gangster classic. Muni plays a bootlegger and a mass murderer of criminal rivals, so he's basically Al Capone. For a film that came out only about 5 years into the sound era, this is pretty terrific technically too. So dial up the 518th lip-wag about Scarface as the Italians battle the Irish in 1920s Chicago while everyone else faces the wrath of a man who has an unhealthy interest in his own sister.

Moulin Rouge

The first episode of a non-theme month here in June (and the 743rd overall) gets loud about Baz Luhrmann's bombastic Moulin Rouge. It's the kind of zany project where the director and star of this Par...
