The scene we cut
Benny Blanco
"Benny Blanco from the Bronx." The young punk Carlito should have killed and did not.
The film is based on two novels by Edwin Torres, a real New York judge who had grown up in Spanish Harlem. Pacino and De Palma had made Scarface together a decade earlier and treated this as the answer to it: the gangster who wants out.
