A Car To Prove That Its True

Al Pacino is a really good actor, and Scarface is one of the best movies ever made! Scarface drives by this Porsche 928 in that movie, so I decided to make "Porsche's advertisement" of 928's role in that movie. 928 was one of most fantastic cars in 80's, harmfully Porsche ended its production in 1995. I made this from a normal Scarface wallpaper and added the 928 from a pic, which is taken from the scene, where Scarface is buying his 928 from Porsche Centre. I added the B & W effect to 928 by PhotoImpression 5 and putted pics together by Photoshop CS3. And of course, the font is the offical Porsche font. I also added the "Copyrights" at the down of this wallpaper just for fun

Easter Sunday ramblings on the Scarface Project

This rather sporadically updated blog hopefully manages to entertain someone, somewhere. If you are a reader and you have something to say, please do. One comment aside, I get the sense I am blogging in a total vacuum.

Some observations based on recent postings:

a) Photoshopping the black-and-white poster image of Tony to include Harry Potter/Bertie Ahern/whoever is pretty close to a cliché. I think I will stop including them as stand alone posts unless they have some extra feature of interest/entertainment.

b) The whole Shakespeare/Scarface thing is interesting and I may try and write something of greater length about it. Most of the YouTube videos of Shakespeare in the style of Scarface seem to be students (whether secondary or third level) undertaking a project. Macbeth in particular, with its intrigue, deceit, and high body count lends itself quite readily to the Montana treatment.

c) I am just beginning to tip my toe into the world of modified cars with Scarface themes. This seems a very fertile source of Montaniana

d) Having not seen the movie itself, some of my internet searching for images brings up aspects of it I was not aware of - in particular the "polluted womb" quote. Montaniana is a pretty macho world which comes across in the iconography. While Michelle Pfeiffer does come up a reasonable amount in image searches, the overwhelming bulk of "adapted" Scarface imagery is of Tone in his various angry/ruthless incarnations.

I would love more context about this. A surreal scene indeed - reminds me of a Bloomsday a few years back when RTE children's TV was devoted to Joyce's widely-read modernist classic, which was once not actually banned in Ireland (if I recall correctly, because the publishers felt there was no point submitting it) but certainly not exactly the orthodox zeitgeist.

The "Scarface Truck" genre is another rich lode of Montaniana
