And in the end came a masterpiece, as brutally beautiful as it is claustrophobic and unsettling. In all that the young Scorsese was reflected. Its self-destructive character, the explosions of violence, the damage to loved ones. Also because Scorsese ended up finding a way to connect with the boxer. Lyrical and violent, the chronicle, combat by combat (all of them shot with an artistic sense of detail), of the rise and fall of Jake LaMotta went ahead thanks to the stubbornness of its protagonist, who was already seeing himself raising the golden statuette. Neither did the blonde Cathy Moriarty if either of those two walked in the places. And you could see that Raging Bull was going to be the opposite: shot in black and white, as if remixing the glorious noir of the 50s, and without offering the viewer any character to cling to: neither De Niro's LaMotta, nor his brother played by Joe Pesci, were guys to go out with for drinks.

Bad Streets (1973) and Taxi Driver (1976) had consecrated him as one of the greatest (despite his short stature) of the so-called New Hollywood. But, at 30-something, before the filming of Raging Bull, he was made a real piltrafa.
