Embedded for easier viewing. Definitely faked.
Faked or no, I’m speechless.
Children should not be exposed to that movie at such young age!
I found this version to be slightly more mature than De Palma’s.
child abuse
“I found this version to be slightly more mature than De Palma’s.”
Having watched both last night, I tend to agree.
Yeah, I don’t really think it’s child abuse or anything that severe. I think it’s pretty funny, and doubt any of these kids actually get the subtext of what they’re doing.
Definitely not child abuse. Hyperbole like that is what diminishes the actual term and all the negative things that should very well be attached to it. These kids look to be having a great time and you can even see the kid playing Tony Montana trying not to smile. I actually enjoyed it more than I did most of Scarface.
So this is real?
Its funny as hell. Can’t wait to see their version of Antichrist
Just read an article and it seems a music video director named Marc Klasfield has stepped forward and claimed it. He rented out a theater in Koreatown in LA and put on the play with child actors.
Marc Klasfeld has a pretty solid videography.
aawwwh… too good to be true
Straight awesome. They staged it to look like a real play, those kids parents volunteered them for it, it’s awesome rofl.
TAKE THAT YOU COCKROACHES!
Just because they are child actors, rather than just children in a school play, it doesn’t make it any less worrying.

People here should get a kick out of this elementary school take on De Palma’s gangster remake classic:

As the excitement of it possibly being real wore off, I still couldn’t help but admire its brevity compared to the actual source material. Yet there’s still that last 20 minutes of SCARFACE, the final act of Stone’s Shakespearean script in which EVERYTHING from the first full TWO HOURS AND TWENTY-FIVE MINUTES of story begin to catch up with with Tony, and De Palma finally delivers on the De Palmitude.
It’s all initiated by one slow-motion moment as Scarface kills right-hand mang Manny for sleeping with his little sister, and it’s among the weirdest, most amazing scenes in movies. Even with Gina screaming "NO! NO!’ silently but for the Giorgio Moroder score, yet you still hear it in your head…compensate for it via auditory
hallucination. Crazy. And the slow-motion makes the moment almost virtually sculptural in the eye’s ability to move around space and contemplate detail at its own chosen rate as Gina dream-runs down the
stairs to clutch at her lover’s dying breaths.
Why couldn’t the entire movie be as good this good, this radical, this…De Palma? It would be 15 hours long, minimum, but I would actually watch with interest ever single frame of THAT. Is it really too late for the notoriously referential director to remake his own most consummately surface film?
