Andy K (10821 KP) rated Raging Bull (1980) in Movies
Feb 15, 2018
Nothing against Goodfellas, Taxi Driver, Mean Streets and other Scorsese masterpieces; however, this has to be his greatest work of all time.
Robert De Niro completely transforms himself into Jake La Motta both physically, mentally and emotionally. Joe Pesci and Cathy Moriarty are also magnificent in support of the story of a courageous boxer and his fall from grace.
Film students still study the directing, cinematography and the stunning visuals of the film in glorious black and white.
The screenplay by Paul Schrader and Mardik Martin is completely believable and make you empathize with this rough, gritty character in his world when he is up on top and on his way down.
A masterpiece!
