A lecture in acting...

Rating: 8/10 (26 May 2004)

Raging Bull is a great film. It shows the life of one of the great men of sport the way he climbed up to the top and then back down.
Personally I am not a sports fan and would not have found the biography of a boxer remotely interesting.
However De Niro gives such a brilliant performance, carries the film in his shoulder so skilfully that it is unlikely not to like this film.
Jo Pesci is also excellent as his brother who is always there to help.
Another Scorcesse brilliance!!!
