About this movie

RAGING BULL is director Martin Scorsese's lacerating film biography of middleweight boxing champion Jake LaMotta, who was known during his brief reign as "the Bronx Bull." LaMotta (played with extraordinary brilliance by Robert De Niro) had early lessons in life: to steal and to fight. His aggression in the ring was a means of combating deep-seated anxieties and emotional fears. This determination and rage turned him from a young hoodlum into a champion. But his drive for the title, his brutality outside of the ring and his almost-psychotic sexual jealousy will destroy his marriage to Vickie (Cathy Moriarty) and his deepest friendships. After Vickie leaves him a final violent confrontation with his patient, supportive brother and manager, Joey (Joe Pesci)-and the loss of his title.

I love movies, and recently I really began to love dramas. I had a chance to watch the film La Motta was referencing to at the end "On the Waterfront" and that films only gets tragic for a perfect minute, Raging Bull is a tragedy from start to finish and I can't name any better, people made me think De Niro was overrated, but in this I see why he's such a respected name in the industry, I should watch the rest of the films in that year to understand why Joe Pesci never won best supporting actor.

This is a brilliant film, with searing sequences of the violence and harm of the sport, and the aftermath. What a breathtaking performance by Robert deniro
