A superb masterpiece

Rating: 10/10 (10 October 1998)

I think Raging Bull is one of the best films ever made. Martin Scorsese is my favorite director and this is him at his best. It is shot in black and white to emphasize the 40's and fifties. This is a quality that makes it unique as well as it's main song taken from an italian opera. It's about a middleweight champion Jake La Motta who has skill but has many problems aside from worrying about taking a dive or not . I don't want to give the movie away but it is extraordinary and one of my favorites.
