Crazy credits for
Scarface (1983) More at IMDbPro »

• Dedicated to Howard Hawks and Ben Hecht
• Scarface is a fiction account of the activities of a small group of
  ruthless criminals. The characters do not represent the Cuban/ American
  Community and it would be erroneous and unfair to suggest that they do. The
  vast majority of Cuban/Americans have demonstrated a dedication, vitality,
  and enterprise that has enriched the American scene.
• In the opening we see a crawl text (with narrator) that reads:
  "In May of 1980, Fidel Castro in an effort to normalize relations with
  the Carter Administration opened the harbor at Mariel, Cuba with the
  apparent intention of letting some of his people join their relatives
  in the United States. Within seventy-two hours, 3,000 U.S. boats were
  headed
  for Cuba. In the next few weeks, it became evident that Castro was forcing
  the boat owners to carry back with them not only their relatives but the
  dregs of his jail population. By the time the port was closed 125,000
  'Marielitos' had landed in Florida. An estimated 25,000 had criminal
  records. This is the story of that minority those they call 'Los
  Bandidos'."
• We see a proverb at the beginning of the movie that says:
  "Enjoy yourself, every day above ground is a good day."
