I don’t go down for nobody.
The life of boxer Jake LaMotta, whose violence and temper that led him to the top in the ring destroyed his life outside of it.
"The peculiarity of the film Raging Bull -- and its enduring inspiration -- is its transformation of La Motta into an opaque and external unit, a negative mirror that makes him a perfect and closed embodiment of the milieu to which he belongs."
— Richard Brody
"What is most remarkable about the new rigour of Raging Bull is that it tells La Motta's story with both complete realism and total subjectivity. In a way that leaves them difficult to disentangle... each is even made to seem a function of the other."
— Richard Combs
