Scarface Pictures became popular after the release of the motion film 'Scarface' directed by Brain de Palma and written by Oliver Stone. This film revolves around a fictional character, Tony Mantano, a Cuban refugee, starred by Al Pacino. The writer incorporated many true crimes in this film and it became very popular among the hip-hop artists and fans. Tony Mantano's style of dressing in this film was considered to be very cool in the 80's and this style became so popular in the world of fashion. Pictures of Al Pacino from this movie, popularly known as 'Scarface Pictures', were sold as posters around the world and they still continue to attract many people.

The popularity of Scarface Pictures can be attributed to the fact that many Latino and Hispanic rappers started identifying themselves with the character 'Tony Mantano' in this movie and started dressing like the characters in the film. This new style turned in to a fashion and many hip-hop fans began collecting the stills of the character 'Tony Mantano' in this film and the demand for Scarface Pictures was born. .

Only a few movies have had so much influence on the American Culture, like 'Scarface'. This movie had an important role in the evolution of 'Hip-Hop' culture, which is being considered as manifestation of street culture. Even though many films released in the 70's and 80's had some influence in shaping the hip-hop culture, the impact of 'Scarface' on the hip-hop culture was far more definite. This is why Scarface Pictures are still popular among the hip-hop fans in United States and continue to symbolize the fashion that gripped the hip-hop culture in the 80's and 90's.

A new video game named, Scarface - The World is Yours, is a brand new game that is going to hit the market like wildfire. The demand for Scarface Pictures could go up once again if this video game is released and it may start to influence the American street culture for another time.
