Het levensverhaal van de bokser Jake La Motta.
Raging Bull
This film traces the life of Jake La Motta through his years of success as a boxer in the forties to humiliation in the fifties ending with La Motta as a nighclub entertainer in 1964. It is not however a conventional bio-pic with an explanatory approach to character. The exterior drama is displaced by La Motta's struggle with interior demons. A radical awareness inflects the modes of the bio-pic and film noir, through the fractured structure, to link aggression with sexual repression and the denial of self with redemption.

Film adaptations
A biographical film about psychologically destructive, violent middleweight champion Jake La Motta.
The story of the rise to fame of an unlikeable middle weight boxer, based on the autobiography of Jake La Motta. Powerfully made but very violent and alienating ringside drama.
Summary: The film shows La Motta's life from the beginning. He fights his way up the ranks and earns a reputation as the "Raging Bull," a fighter who can't be stopped. He was a loner who turned his fears and frustrations into the physical energy of a champion. Unfortunately, he wasn't able to control that energy when he was with his brother or his wife. Ironically, the same qualities that won him the middleweight title ultimately led to his downfall.
De Niro gives an amazing portrayal of a man whose animal side lurks just beneath the surface, ever ready to erupt.
