Scorsese and De Niro are together for their third time in a row (4th overall), and wait for it… De Niro is playing a troubled and abusive character who’s his own worst enemy. Don’t get us wrong this is a masterpiece, but there’s a bit of a theme going on here… Hey, this is the fun of watching the filmography in order! We get to see the themes develop over time in Marty’s work.

In Raging Bull, We get Marty’s take on a sports movie through the lens of a biopic following the rise and fall of real life boxer Jake Lamotta in dazzling Black and White! When did this come out again? 1980!! Cool, love this for them that they made a successful B&W movie in 1980.

Join Kevin and Forrest as we dive into Marty’s 7th feature film, is it a knock out or are Marty & DeNiro on the ropes?
