[QUOTE="Werewillie Oleson, post: 403822, member: 8"] RAGING BULL (1980) [ATTACH type="full"]53690[/ATTACH] To me, this almost looks like two separate films: 1) Scorsese's cinematic masterpiece and 2) Robert De Niro's commanding and enigmatic performance that just happens to happen in that very biopic. And they're so good at it that it almost clashes. There's a lot to see, hear and enjoy in this film but as soon as De Niro appears on screen, which is like 95% of the film, I find it impossible to take my eyes off of him. He certainly wasn't the last actor who went through extreme physical changes but I wonder if anyone had done it before Raging Bull? But what surprised me the most is that Jake LaMotta, who comes across as an illiterate loose canoon, ends up with a mic in his hand - rapping Shakespeare, no less. [/QUOTE]
