Scarface (December 9, 1983)

In 1980, young Cuban hitman Tony Montana, the son of a Cuban woman and an American man, is kicked out of his country during the infamous Mariel boatlift, in which Cuban president Fidel Castro exiled thousands of his deadliest prisoners to Florida. There, Tony and several of his old prison friends, including his partner-in-crime, Manny Ray (or Manolo), find themselves being held in a detention camp beneath a highway while the U.S. government attempts to figure out what to do with the fugitives. Luck comes for them when they are hired by a Miami drug dealer, Frank Lopez, to murder a former Castro loyalist who has since fallen from favor. In exchange for carrying out the assassination, Lopez promises to obtain US immigration green cards for Manny, Tony, and another associate named Angel. They eagerly agree and stab the man to death during a detention camp riot.
