UNITED STATES | 129 minutes | 1980

In the 1940s, former delinquent Jake La Motta finds an outlet for his pent-up rage in professional boxing. There are those classics that stand the test of time and whose force never wanes… Close to four decades after it was first released, Raging Bull hasn’t lost an ounce of its power to astonish, disturb and pack a walloping punch. A monumental performance from DeNiro, red-blooded direction from Scorsese, deft writing from Paul Schrader, all of it photographed and edited into a work whose evocative power remains unmatched, make it a landmark not just in terms of Scorcese’s career but also of film history.

Screenwriter Paul Schrader will be present
