Raging Bull

One of Scorsese’s finest films, and one of the best boxing movies of all time.

Robert De Niro famously transformed himself from someone able to realistically portray Jake La Motta in the ring, to the older, much heavier version of La Motta later in life.

The movie was shot in black and white, which added to its sense of period realism,  Its advertising posters were likewise devoid of colour other than blood red titles, and are probably the most sought after of any of Scorsese’s films other than Taxi Driver.

This is the original US One Sheet movie poster from the film’s first release, with the stark and bloodied close-up of De Niro as La Motta.
