Upon rewatch this low key may be deniros best role - so much depth and progression
It's supremely brutal, with punishing boxing sequences as well as shocking violence set outside the ring. Scorsese De Niro, life of LaMotta
One of the most unique of Scorsese’s works, yet his vision’s constantly present, an acting and cinematography masterclass.
The cinematography is incredible and the story is brutal and real
Like a more Shakespearean Rocky but based closely on a true story. A bit slow at times so that De Niro and Scorsese can display their craft.
Hate boxing but loved this back in the day. All my favs; a true story, De Niro and Scorcese, but a one time watch for me.
Some of the most beautifully uncomfortable filmmaking I’ve ever seen
I hate Jake Lamotta and DeNiro is a god for making me feel that way
Biopics can tell a great story but you know by actors. The clear delivery of lines, movement and raw emotion is unique.
This all-time great biopic is still a rough and somewhat repetitive rewatch. The phenomenal acting and amazing editing lift the film, though
