| Raging Bull (1980, director: Martin Scorsese) I just saw the film Raging Bull for the first time. It truly is an example of what good filmmaking is. I was trying to encapsulate my thoughts about this movie in to a succinct statement, but was unable to really do it justice. So, I'll quote Mr. Albino himself, Ebert. *applause* "LaMotta was famous for refusing to be knocked down in the ring. There are scenes where he stands passively, his hands at his side, allowing himself to be hammered. We sense why he didn't go down. He hurt too much to allow the pain to stop." All I can say is that I heartily recommend this movie to anyone who loves good movies. |
