True story, I lived in Naples Fl in the early 80s I worked at a new movie theater there called The Pavilion. Scarface was playing there. One night Al Pacino and Stephen Baur came there to watch Scarface. They wanted to see the audience reaction. Long story short, He was very nice Mr Pacino. Signed a movie poster we had for Scarface. Said a line from the movie and gave us girls a kiss. ❤️😊. Thanks for the great Vlog And Chris the girl
Amazing story! Thank you for sharing that with me and watching. :)
Why would they go the opposite side of the state when the movie primarily took place in Miami?
@@IIIIIIllIIIllIIto keep it somewhat low key
@@pakulera4663 yeah bull lol
No you didn't you ain't getting attention
Why would they butcher such a iconic place. They should have kept the room and made it an attraction
Can't believe it's been 40 years! Time sure does fly.
Great video TJ, enjoyed it!
Scarface is one of the greatest films ever made, thanks for sharing this! Well done
Dude I gotta say, I really freakin live the way you put this together. No clickbait, STRAIGHT to the point, and totally outstanding attention to detail which made this video super kick ass. I was actually right there on the street earlier today for the first time ever!! I stopped, and was like wait, this is THE scene.
Thanks man! Fantastic video and the easiest subscribe ever!
Awesome filming locations! You did tons of research, and it shows. 👏👏👏 So glad the CVS embraced the locale, and it hadn't changed too much.
Thank you, and enjoy Miami. 🤗
Ya'll stay safe! 🙌
Thank you Kimberly i always love when the places embrace the filming location’s
So happy you got to do Scarface filming locations love that movie
Great job Jay and Cris
Haven't seen any other CZcamsr go through it so thoroughly. Including some of your fellow colleagues lol
Absolutely loved that movie!
Thanks for taking us along. Really enjoyed this video
Thanks so much happy to hear you enjoyed it!
Great video brother. Scarface is one of my favorite movies, so I think it's really cool that you were able to see all these filming locations. I really enjoyed watching this video.
You did a great job Tampa Jay! On spot with this classic movie! Thank you!
i thank you for your wonderful and clear narration of the most iconic movie "scarface"..hoping many great movie location where it was shoot coming soon on your wonderful vlog bro! more stories and more power..
Wow Frank's apartment is also in the opening of Miami Vice I've always loved it!
I have to say that your Scarface video is one of the best CZcams videos I've watched in a while. I'm a big Scarface fan and to see the area's in Miami where the movie was made had me smiling throughout your presentation. Very well executed in every respect. Our national news media could take a lesson from how well you explained the movie. Being a Tampa guy I also love your other videos like the Manatee River bridge, (Orange Blossom Special). Keep up the great work and I'll stay a loyal follower.
Thank you so much man! That’s a huge compliment and I appreciate it! I had a blast tracking these down I am a big fan of the movie too. I appreciate you always living vicariously through my videos. It means a lot to me! Much ahead my friend!
This is a very detailed video, one of the best Scarface location videos ever. Very informative and well done all the way! Thank you so much!
Another great video! I absolutely love your filming locations! Awesome as usual 🤩
Thanks so much for watching! Glad you enjoyed it such a great film!!

Thanks for always watching my friend! Appreciate you!
Thanks for this inpressions. Im a
Big big fan of this movie and i have long wondered what has happened in these places over the years. Kind of sad that everything is changing so quickly. Thank you for the great video.
Love from germany
Thank you !
That was amazing babe, great job!!! I'm so proud of you!!!
Hello Chris the girl, you was great on Tampa Jays video and we are going to watch yours next. Your a great couple and we are glad you two found each other. In ten days my wife & I will be married 20 year's!
@@clearwaterdaddy9306 thank you so much!!
Thank you beautiful! I love you!
Very cool video! I've seen a few of your videos and you do a good job. Looking forward to watching your older videos! You got a new subscriber!
I love seeing filming locations from my home state and especially for such an icon of a film!
I love these pilgrimages to iconic movie land/scenemarks. My "seared in my young brain" movie was Taxi Driver and Scarface was second.
Awesome video Jay and Cris! Was such a beautiful day. Cris is right too, Miami is one big instagram worthy photo. Much ahead my friends!
It’s so picturesque and vintage out there I love it! Thank you Krystal!
I've stayed at a bunch of hotels on that strip/right next to that hotel, the memories I have of that beachfront street dating back to 1991 and up until now , priceless
I'm here now. Your video helped me immensely!! "In and out" taking photos.
THE WORLD IS YOURS
Great job, my dad worked at the Fountain Bleu when they filmed there. I was just a kid but spent a lot of summers in the cave pool. Also the CVS use to be Johnny Rockets, you could eat and watch the movie playing on a mounted TV. The 80’s was crazy down there.
That’s amazing! Very cool you remember the volcano pool that must’ve been fun
This also made me homesick! It was awesome thank you. BTW the original Kapok Tree Inn was in Clearwater until 1991..
Thanks man! It’s still there it’s now a Sam Ash music store. Cris and I were there the other night before the Mellencamp show’
Oh wow! I love this.. Scarface is my all time favourite movie & I just got back from Miami a few days ago... I had NO IDEA this CVS was the hotel from the movie!!! I went right by😢
Great tour! I've never seen Scarface, but love Miami Vice and it's interesting to see how close in time Scarface and MV were, but just how much more modern and advanced MV looked than did Scarface. Funny to think about because so many people complain about the change in fashion from early MV to later MV, when you compare MV and Scarface and just how different they looked. People want to smash all 10 years of the 80s into one look when that is far, far from the truth.
Hard times man. Respect for your Pops
Thanks for doing this. U had a lot I have never seen. .ty
Thank you for joining me !
Hi mate loving all the locations your going to nice work to
Awesome video and your matchups are always amazing! Chris the girl was looking beautiful you both were wearing perfect Miami outfits you look like could be in the movie! Segway funny back in the day I knew a girl who was in that movie I'm thinking she was probably en extra or something I still haven't seen it I'm a master procrastinator haha
Thank you!
Great video! I love Scar Face!
Thank you!
Awesome video man. I love this movie, definitely in my top 10. I clearly remember my Father letting me watch it in the late 80s and my Mother SCREAMING at him like mad. It was a TV cut also, lol. Yet, I was hooked and infatuated with this movie before ANY of the other movies I put ahead of it today (Goodfellas, The Godfather) I hadn't seen them yet, this was my first true mob/crime movie.
Just stumbled across your channel the other day. Really cool and interesting. Big fan of Scarface so this is great stuff! (By the way your fiancé is super cute!)
Entertaining video my friend, always Scarface blow the mind of every single fan of this great movie. I’ll be in touch with your channel, best regards!
That Atlantis Condo was also used in the opening montage for the Miami Vice TV series as well with that iconic staircase.
Great video man I'm from Australia and this video was a treat to my eyes the pictures at 17:45 just how much the beach water look so much more clear and blue back in 83 it looks so damn good.
Great video! The Fontainebleau Hotel was also used to film James Bond Goldfinger scenes :)
Awesome filming location Jay! Great movie. I will say the bathroom scene freaked me out when I first saw it. lol
It is probably the most horrific scene outside of a horror movie. Thanks buddy
Great job matey
Hello from Gatlinburg TN Smoky Mountains Park 🏞️..great job as always
Love the video great job you both are amazing PS I Love your shades and shirt Chris the girl!! You guys be safe 💚💛
Thank you so much!
Love you guys great video
Thank you Gary you’re awesome man
It is a beautiful place, but at the time it was simply magical by the pictures and videos available. Flawless architecture, simple but beautiful. It was a masterpiece back then, and Florida is a great place anyways, as beautiful as my hometown Florianopolis (which is famous among tourists from all over the continent as well).
Tampa Jay, I was in Miami back in 1988. My buddy and I was in the right place at the right time, and we saw a night scene between two buildings there on South Beach being filmed for Miami Vice. When you videoed in the alley for this video, I almost thought it was the same alley where they filmed the night scene. It wasn't though. Miami is an awesome place.
I was just thinking about Grand Theft Auto right before you said it 😂Great video, been enjoying your and Cris the girl video’s. I’m a new viewer to your channels, helps me since I hv bn having shoulder issues 🌹
Awesome idol jay..🤙
Thank you 👌
Miami is beautiful, I hope to go there one day. We played in Tampa, but never made it to Miami, on our southern tour.
Awesome
congratulations , best video "!
Thanks for the video, it's such a great movie! I wish they'd bring the color back to Miami, though. All those pastel buildings in the 80s are just white now.
Thanks so much John
Seems like you two had a fun filled weekend.
Thanks for always watching Noell. We had a great weekend in Miami!
Say hello to my little friend. Very good movie. The best
Great video Tampa Jay
Thank you!
Very nice!
32:50 Just a small correction. This is a 1963 Cadillac Series 62. Thanks a lot for the thorough tour! I thought it was only gonna be the Sun Ray motel.
Im from CT and 2 weeks ago i went to south beach Just To see the CVS 😂 is incredible how everything change.
Oh yeah, this is what I’m talking about. I see you, Tampa J moving and grooving all over Florida again.🔥😎
Thank you Fidel! Appreciate ya
Great video Jay! Really loved it; haven’t seen these in person in 15 years. Just wanted to give some love to Brian De Palma who directed the movie and Oliver Stone who wrote it.
Thanks for watching man glad you enjoyed it. I think I accidentally* cut out the part where I was praising Brian as well! I’m a big fan.
@@TampaJay love De Palma too. I figured something like that happened because I know you are such a big movie fan. De Palma deserves the love
HEY, TAMPA JAY & Cirs The Girl yeah that was one of my favorite movies back In the 80s
WOW It's so crazy how much the city has changed since then
Al Pacino was so cool In this movie he was getting to be a bigger actor After this one OK
You two looking good
Take care stay safe and I will see you two on the next video projects
Hey Mark! Thanks so much man
Nice video , a lot information ℹ️ I visited yesterday cuz this video help me! Brian de Palma or Oliver stone?
Bad ass! Love Scarface, one of my all time favorite movies. Love GTA Vice City, one of my all time favorite video games. Love the Miami colors and vibes! Wish I spent waaaay more time down there during my prime party years. lol
I love you GTA vice city I played it to its completion!! Thanks for watching man
Wow great channel ❤
❤❤ welcome to Miami welcome to Miami Tampa J you're awesome I'm in Jensen Beach right now I will not Mine taking a trip to Miami It looks pretty happening it looks lit😊😊
That’s crazyyyyyy
Nice. Thx for nice movie location video. Maybe You will find locations in Miami from the nice 80s mobie "Band of the hand" from 1988?
While near Miami, you have to see a place called "Aerojet" that is south of homestead Florida in everglades swampland. Its a huge complex of a dozen or more buildings spread way apart in the middle of nowhere. Its been abandoned since the 60's when they mixed solid rocket fuel in one set of buildings, and fired the rockets from the most remote buildings and silo. Urban explorers go there sometimes but you need a bicycle or its a long walk down a long road that fish and wildlife used excavators to tear up in places so you can't drive there. Buildings are open, no doors mostly, and lots of cool rocket making stuff.
Does the Kapok Tree restaurant have anything to do with the one that use to be in Tampa/Clearwater area ?
I watched that movie because of Michelle Pfeiffer, but the one line I remember the most (besides the ones on the tables) is "Every Day Above Ground Is a Good Day" I still say that till this day! CVS was my favorite overview. That scene... oof...
Hey Tampa Jay Nice Cool Video today great job Tampa Jay 😁👍🇺🇲
Thank you man
@@TampaJay your welcome
i see a PT. 2 and 3 in the MUCH AHEAD...also in the opening credit sequence of "MIAMI VICE", a quick shot of the ATLANTIS is seen. the red spiral staircase can be seen, and i love any movie tv show filmed in Miami, "BURN NOTICE", and of course 'BAD BOYS" as well!
I showed a ton of Miami Vice locations in this one. I love that show much ahead!
The scene at the beach when tony asked you wanna ice cream that bar bit was in police academy 5 when he throws the match at the hat when on fire
I'm so sad to see that so many Miami Vice locations have been lost over time. The OCB Building is a great example of this. It's a real shame that they've now destroyed the only original Scarface filming location in Miami too.
I had no idea the Kapok Tree was used for Scarface. We lived in Ft. Lauderdale from 1977-1979, our son was born there in 1978. We went to the Kapok Tree several times and it was way away from everything at that time, I guess now it is not. It was such a beautiful place and had great food. After our son was born we took my husband's parents there and have several pictures of us sitting near the fountain, etc. In Clearwater there was another Kapok Tree and Baumgartner's, owned by the same people. I know they all went under, so sad. I wonder if in Clearwater the tree is even still there, it was huge.
If I had this property, I would have kept it as the way it was. I even wouldn't dare to change the colours.
I saw that movie yesterday morning n it was a great movie until at the end
فيلم تحفه | thanks
Hey yo tampa jay. You should do the filming locations of the movie blow. Nobody on her has done it surprisingly.
It’s been a cvs for at least 4 years. Went to visit and say those stairs
Say hello to my little vlog! Thanks for watching. Here’s my last Miami video in case you missed the notification…czcams.com/video/bYhwY5hohT4/video.html
nice job that was fun. btw its not kay-pik, its kay-pok, as in tupac. the kaypok tree was a famous over the top chain from the 1960s. the most famous of them all was actually the kapok tree in clearwater near tampa.
I used to deliver to the Kapok Tree and still drive by there daily. It's pronounced KA-Pock.
Please do some Miami Vice locations, Jay, although I suppose you don''t do TV shows, right?
Mornin Jay!!
Morning
Cool video bro. I’ve always wondered what happened to the apartment it’s sad to see they ripped it all out probably one of the best movies ever made
why is it closed off? the stairs
I was born down the st from the house wich is located off the 101 hw in montecito ca.
Wow this is awesome!!! You wanna play rough? Ok haha
It's not "Oliver Stone's Scarface." It's Brian DePalma's Scarface. Olive Stone wrote the screenplay, but it's the director that gets the credit as being his film.
We are going on a cruise on the 6 of march im going to be in that area
Why did they block the building?
