Raging Bull
1980 · Director: Martin Scorsese · US
What it is about
A biography of boxer Jake LaMotta, whose jealousy and aggression destroy everything around him.
The fighting in it
LaMotta trained Robert De Niro himself and judged him capable of a professional bout. The ring scenes are shot subjectively, from inside — which is why they feel unlike a sports broadcast.
