Martin Scorsese’s lacerating, visionary biopic of ruthless boxer Jake LaMotta (masterfully portrayed by Robert De Niro in his second Academy Award-winning role) steps back into the ring in a stunning new 4K restoration.
During his brief reign as middleweight boxing champion, Jake LaMotta was known as "The Bronx Bull". LaMotta had early lessons in life: to steal and to fight. He channelled his tough childhood into the ring, where his aggression became a way of combating deep-seated anxieties and emotional fears. This determination and rage turned him from a young hoodlum into a champion. But his drive for the title, his brutality outside of the ring, and his almost-psychotic sexual jealousy threatens to destroy his marriage, his deepest friendships, and the career he fought to build.
