Review of Raging Bull (1980) by Sheila Benson for Los Angeles Times — 28 Oct 1999
The entire film is played at such high pitch it may well exhaust audiences that don't come prepared. And, at the heart of the film, there is the mystery of Jake himself, but that is what separates Raging Bull from all other fight movies, in fact, from most movies about anything.
Raging Bull is an achievement.
