Dir.: Martin Scorsese | 129 minutes

Raging Bull

USA 1980 | 129 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Martin Scorsese shatters the romantic myth of the man who rises from poverty to greatness and describes a man consumed by feelings of inferiority, who behaves animalistically with his surroundings. This is Scorsese at his best - a black-and-white film noir, with homages to the boxing films of the 1940s and 1950s (as well as the early films of Elia Kazan), a film that, like Mean Streets, Taxi Driver, and Bringing Out the Dead, presents the brutality, violence, and mercilessness New York.
