Description

With this stunningly visceral portrait of self-destructive machismo, Martin Scorsese created one of the truly great and visionary works of modern cinema. Robert De Niro pours his blood, sweat, and brute physicality into the Oscar- winning role of Jake La Motta, the rising middleweight boxer from the Bronx whose furious ambition propels him to success within the ring but whose unbridled paranoia and jealousy tatter his relationships with everyone in his orbit, including his brother and manager (Joe Pesci) and gorgeous, streetwise wife (Cathy Moriarty). Thelma Schoonmaker’s Oscar-winning editing, Michael Chapman’s extraordinarily tactile black-and-white cinematography, and Frank Warner’s ingenious sound design combine to make Raging Bull a uniquely powerful exploration of violence on multiple levels—physical, emotional, psychic, and spiritual.DIRECTOR-APPROVED BLU-RAY SPECIAL EDITION FEATURESNew 4K digital master, approved by director Martin Scorsese, with 2.0 surround DTS-HD Master Audio soundtrackNew video essays by film critics Geoffrey O’Brien and Sheila O’Malley on Scorsese’s mastery of formal techniques and the film’s triumvirate of charactersThree audio commentaries, featuring Scorsese and editor Thelma Schoonmaker; director of photography Michael Chapman, producers Robert Chartoff and Irwin Winkler, casting director Cis Corman, music consultant Robbie Robertson, actors Theresa Saldana and John Turturro, and sound-effects supervising editor Frank Warner; and boxer Jake La Motta and screenwriters Mardik Martin and Paul SchraderFight Night, a making-of program featuring Scorsese and key members of the cast and crewThree short programs highlighting the longtime collaboration between Scorsese and actor Robert De NiroTelevision interview from 1981 with actor Cathy Moriarty and the real Vikki La MottaInterview with Jake La Motta from 1990Program from 2004 featuring veteran boxers reminiscing about La MottaTrailerEnglish subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearingPLUS: Essays by poet Robin Robertson and film critic Glenn Kenny

  • Scorsese's Last Shot (Not Really, But...)
"𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝑫𝒊𝒅𝒏'𝒕 𝑮𝒆𝒕 𝑴𝒆 𝑫𝒐𝒘𝒏, 𝑹𝒂𝒚." Raging Bull is a 1980 American biographical sports drama film directed by Martin Scorsese, produced by Robert Chartoff and Irwin Winkler and adapted by Paul Schrader and Mardik Martin from Jake LaMotta's 1970 memoir Raging Bull: My Story. The film, distributed by United Artists, stars Robert De Niro as Jake LaMotta, an Italian-American middleweight boxer whose self-destructive and obsessive rage, sexual jealousy, and animalistic appetite destroyed his relationship with his wife and family. Also featured in the film are Joe Pesci as Joey, LaMotta's well-intentioned brother and manager who tries to help Jake battle his inner demons, and Cathy Moriarty as his wife. As a means of contending with Rocky (1976), the decision was made to make ‘Raging Bull’ a black and white feature; subsequently, a secondary effect of this creative choice is the period authenticity - making this a simply timeless classic. To further separate itself from other biographical sports dramas, cinematographer Michael Chapman decided to film inside of the boxing ring (as opposed to outside of it) and designed these scenes after seeing LaMotta's moves and techniques in person. This allowed every fight - which totals up to approximately 10 minutes of run time - to be choreographed down to the tiniest detail. The same dedication to accuracy is reflected in the only moments where color (Albeit highly desaturated) are present - which are imitations of LaMotta's own videos that he provided to the crew. For his portrayal of LaMotta, Robert De Niro won an Academy Award for Best Actor. The preparation alone was grueling and tedious - he studied and trained under LaMotta for approximately a year and then entered in 3 genuine Brooklyn boxing matches (and, #fanfact, he won 2). Influenced and inspired by LaMotta’s own fixation with his weight ( a theme repeated throughout ‘Raging Bull’) De Niro then went on to gain approximately 60 pounds despite having artificial measures ( prosthetics, etcetera) made easily and readily accessible to him. Juxtaposed with De Niro’s season aggression and multifaceted performance are Pesci and Shoemaker - unappreciated and inexperienced at the time - who make for interactions intended to illustrate how difficult LaMotta was to mollify painfully relatable. Outside of the ring LaMotta is arguably not much of a role model; he could have very easily been sanitized as a way of censoring details about his life, but he admitted openly to being physically aggressive with his wives on multiple occasions. Scorsese doesn't make any excuse for this behavior, but instead focuses on the mitigating circumstances and pressures that LaMotta constantly found himself at odds with as a means of making something of himself. As LaMotta's insecurities nullify his yearn for glory there is a sympathy for his journey - and while undeserved in some respects, this results in an exceptionally immersive and endlessly profound character study. A quick word on the context in which ‘Raging Bull’ was made because I think it's relevant. In 1978, Martin Scorsese nearly died; After having developed a serious addiction to cocaine to combat a lack of confidence in himself he was hospitalized with severe internal bleeding and nearly suffered a brain hemorrhage following an overdose. While in the hospital he was visited by De Niro and told quite simply: if you want to live, make this movie [Raging Bull]. Scorsese obliged tenfold and threw every resource possible at production, because he thought this would be his last American film. Almost 30 years later Scorsese has proved his audience - and, more importantly, himself - wrong in this respect, and he has shown time and again that he knows how to make and break the rules so as to avoid a cookie-cutter like cinematic experience. Through LaMotte and Scorsese himself it's clear that the way in which one rises to the top takes a back seat to the tenacity in which it is coordinated. Sometimes we crawl. Sometimes we climb. And sometimes we float. Whatever the manner - there's always a fight. A lingering and painstaking desire to get back up. A risk of getting knocked out. A Risk of getting knocked down. But there’s always a fight. Fight with everything you have. Fight like you have something to lose. Fight like the depth of your longevity depends on it. ... show more

  • Top Movie of the 80's
Sequence during and after which Jake confronts Joey about Copa incident is an all-time great; the post-argument camera pan, Jake assuredly climbing stairs for bout vs paranoid delusions and frustration via Vickie - witness the spectacle. Jake then entering Joey's home and confronting him is hysterical - like watching home movies for This Bronx Irish Catholic. Anyone who says this isn't a great movie doesn't know what they're watching. The cast know each other's body language cues, and being native New Yorkers, speak with authentic South Bronx dialect and accent of that era. This film couldn't be made today. There are no young actors who knew that culture and speak that language. New York shown here is long gone. I like how Jake's alcoholism is minimized - the way society largely ignored it then. DVD extras: Cathy Moriarty was nice to me when I was very young. She took me by hand and put me in her brother's red pedal fire truck (he freaked). I think our Dads were cousins. Another cousin of theirs is an extra Jake walks past as he enters for Cerdon fight. Cathy screeches with what Bronx girls sounded like when they screamed. My sister did that. I could not stand it. Or Her. I was close with an Irish-American gentleman who grew up with LaMotta Bros. Said Joey was tougher than Jake. Donald said it was a right of passage for young guys to get tossed down stairs when first trying to enter a local club, and laughed when I told him film shows that. You could stay if you muscled your way in, though. The Hub was a tough neighborhood. ... show more

  • Classic DeNiro
I read a few bad reviews here. Let me say that some people should watch only 'feel good' movies. Now i said it. "Raging Bull" is based on the true life of boxer Jake Lamotta. Sorry folks. This is not intended to be a "feel good" movie. What makes me feel good about this movie. is watching the acting talents of DeNiro and Pesci together. Naturally brilliant performances. These are not wooden actors. It's a pleasure watching them together on screen. ... show more

  • A champion at his best
A champion find back his perfect shape. For me RAGING BULL is a Classic pillar as CITIZEN KANE or CHILDREN OF PARADISE. I saw it on TV, VHS, DVD, BLU-Ray and on a wide cinema screen presented in the MGM 2004 first restoration but this new 4k restoration from Criterion is a knockout!
