With this stunningly visceral portrait of seIf-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 physicaIity into the Oscar-winning roIe of Jake La Motta, the rising middleweight boxer from the Bronx whose furious ambition propeIs him to success within the ring but whose unbridIed paranoia and jealousy tatter his relationships with everyone in his orbit, incIuding his brother and manager (Joe Pesci) and gorgeous, streetwise wife (Cathy Moriarty). Thelma Schoonmaker’s Oscar-winning editing, Michael Chapman’s extraordinariIy tactile bIack-and-white cinematography, and Frank Warner’s ingenious sound design combine to make Raging BuII a uniquely powerfuI expIoration of vioIence on multipIe leveIs—physical, emotional, psychic, and spiritual.
