Raging Bull is definately in my Top 5 hands down, and to me is my favorite Scorsese flick. Robert De Niro even won best actor for his realistic portrayal of former boxing middleweight world champion Jake LaMotta. Below is the Opening title sequence from Raging Bull which has even been re-produced in the Sopranos, (see Blue Comet r.i.p. Bobby)
“intermezzo-cavalleria rusticana” by Mascagni is the tune and I’d be lying if it wasn’t on my Infinite playlist
