RAGING BULL
Special Features: New 4K Restoration
Nominated for eight Academy Awards®, including Best Picture and Best Director, Martin Scorsese's profanity-packed blowtorch biopic of middleweight boxing legend Jake LaMotta has consistently topped critics' "best of" lists, and won a Best Actor Oscar® for Robert De Niro. The fighter never hits the canvas in the ring, but his battles with wife (Cathy Moriarty) and brother (Joe Pesci) are a war of attrition with no winners. Best Supporting Actor Oscar® nominee Pesci was managing a restaurant when De Niro suggested him for the role. DIR Martin Scorsese; SCR Paul Schrader, Mardik Martin, from the book by Jake LaMotta, Peter Savage and Joseph Carter; PROD Irwin Winkler, Robert Chartoff. U.S., 1980, b&w, 129 min. RATED R
