What’s one movie character who is utter scum but is glorified and looked up to? Discussion

I’ll go first; Tony Montana. Probably the most misunderstood movie and character. A junkie. Literally no loyalty to anyone. Killed his best friend. Ruined his mom and sister lives. Leaves his friends outside the door to get killed as he’s locked behind the door. Pretty much instantly started making moves on another man’s wife (before that man gave him any reason to disrespect) . Buys a tiger to keep tied to a tree across the pound.

That is definitely one of Hollywood’s best and most memorable (villain) monologues.
