Raging Bull

Rating: 9/10 (10 October 2019)

This film tells the true story of boxing icon Jake La Motta, a sometimes paranoid, hard-headed fighter from the 40s. De Niro's work in this is just sublime, he gives us 2 hours of rock-solid method acting, and the way that he and Pesci feed off each other on the screen is a landmark of not only cinema, but enterteinment in general. They are perfect together. And we should be grateful to have gotten to see these two incredible actors work together for so long.
The supporting cast is also spot-on, and combined with Scorsese's meticulous directing, they all shine in their own way.
9/10
