Souza. That tells you that name? How do you not remember? Souza was the most evil villain who clashes with Al Pacino-Scarface, that drug dealer invetato by Oliver Stone and Brian De Palma gives us the film's famous final shootout with a dip in the swimming hero Tony Montana.
Well, in reality, in the state of Manaus in the Amazon, there is a Wallace Souza equally ruthless.
Ma .. stop for a moment! Wallace also it's not a name at all, I would say Quentin Tarantino memory. How can we forget the boss Marcelus Wallace in Pulp Fiction, known to posterity for the mishaps of his sacred orifice.
Ok, back to the real person. Wallace Souza, a former police officer born in 1958, is today a popular Brazilian TV presenter and politician. His fame came thanks to a TV program a great success in the Amazon region where they were shown images of real arrests and police raids against ruthless criminals.
The images were - needless to say - violent and crude. In short, as in Scarface and Pulp fiction, just a little 'more real.
strength of its success as a conductor, a few years ago Souza was given to the policy, the most votes of the State of Amazonas. All thanks to the formula: lots of fools in front of the TV, so many chickens in line at the polling place.
As in the best stories in his life came However, a shady character, the Moa Moacir Jorge da Costa, also a former cop and killer pay. Moacir
recently was arrested and charged with a long list of crimes until he comes out with something that ruins the star Souza accuses him of having ordered the assassination because of several murders, commissioned specially to be taken "hot" by the cameras of his TV program.
Now I say, if someone plans to murder the taste of the spectators stoned, there's not much wonder if they realize that a few TG anyone can show us what he wants.
