    Paul Schrader's thoughts on AI • Gave him script notes 'as good or better than I've ever received from a film exec' • Asked for film ideas and thought everything it gave him was good, original, and fleshed out • He wrote 'Taxi Driver', 'Raging Bull' and many other films

    Really worth watching this deeply evocative reflection by Martin Scorsese on the films of Powell & Pressberger, if only to learn how The Life and Death of Colonel Blimp influenced the fight scenes in Raging Bull www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/epis...

    Tatami is a sports corruption drama in the spirit of old "boxing noir" films and "Raging Bull," about an Iranian women's judo team competing with other national teams while Iran's government uses them as proxies in an ideological war. It's excellent. www.rogerebert.com/reviews/tata...

    "...And yet, like antihero Rupert Pupkin in a waiting room, The King of Comedy refuses to go away." Yes, a great film. I much prefer it to Scorsese's other movie about a bad comic, Raging Bull.

    I was thinking how funny it was that the only sports-related movie Scorsese (who famously dislikes sports) ever made - Raging Bull - deliberately de-emphasizes the 'sport' and presents boxing purely as two men beating each other to death for money, with no fondness or admiration whatsoever

    I have heard interviews with Martin Scorsese where the reporter tries the “‘Raging Bull’ was robbed” prompt, only to have Marty shut it down with “But ‘Ordinary People’ is a great movie.” And Marty had a key cameo in Redford’s “Quiz Show” in 1994.

    Because you turn into the weird asshole who talks himself into being a Republican trying to find a "theoretical argument" where 'ROCKY IV' is "actually the objectively superior movie" to 'RAGING BULL' and ...no, it isn't. 'RAGING BULL' is better *even though* 'ROCKY IV' rules and I'd rather watch it

    Been down for various reasons. Went to see The Set-Up. Seen it before but never in the cinema. Christ, what a movie. The best boxing sequence on film other than Raging Bull, & that's only because Raging Bull (admittedly) lifts it. Robert Ryan's best, probably.

    One of the very best. RIP RM Guera suggested I watch True Confessions recently. A largely forgotten 1981 Duvall-De Niro double header. De Niro’s great in it - this is the film he does in between Raging Bull and King of Comedy. Peak of powers. But True Confessions is Duvall’s movie. He’s that good.

    A favorite scene from Raging Bull (1980) - the seamless collaboration between film editor Thelma Schoonmaker #botd and Scorsese- how every cut to Vicky is in slo mo and every cut back to La Motta is in real time to show how he views her as golden conquest.

    I really don't like Raging Bull at all. I can appreciate the craft of it and the acting, but it's about a pedophile who spends the whole movie treating people like garbage. I found Jake LaMotta irredeemable in it from the jump, like he's the exact opposite of tragic to me.

    Reading a Cahiers du Cinéma collection of Scorsese essays & interviews & amused to learn Thelma Schoonmaker told him the whole Raging Bull crew hated Jake LaMotta & wondered “pourquoi je perdais mon temps à faire un film sur ce raté” (why I was wasting my time making a film about that loser).

    Raging Bull (movie) is arguably more of a biography than Jake La Motta's actual biography (also titled Raging Bull). La Motta cut his own brother out of his life story. Paul Schrader, while doing a rewrite of the script, realized that whatever conflict La Motta had with his brother WAS the story.
