“Scarface” was released 35 years ago this December, but its early anniversary celebration hit a memorable snag at last month’s Tribeca Film Festival. During a post-screening Q&A with the cast and director Brian De Palma, moderator Jesse Kornbluth elicited jeers for asking Michelle Pfeiffer what she weighed when stepping into the role of cocaine addict Elvira Hancock, a question he later defended as “a comment on the knee-jerk political correctness of our time.” Nonetheless, on Monday, Universal Pictures, Screenvision Media, and the festival announced that the crime drama will be re-released for three days this June, and audiences nationwide will be shown said Q&A following the credits.
“The Tribeca Film Festival talk was an important commemoration of the film,” said Screenvision Media’s executive vice president of operations and exhibitor relations, Darryl Schaffer, in a statement. “We’re excited to extend it to the big screen and provide...
