Description | For what is still considered the performance oh his career, Robert De Niro won the 1980 Best Actor Oscar for his searing portrayal of real-life boxer Jake La Motta in a film that routinely list among critics’s top ten picks of the decade. Martin Scorsese’s flawless direction and Michael Chapman’s gritty cinematography vividly capture the blood and brutality of the fight world… and the dark landscape of the human soul. One of the ring’s most feared brawlers. La Motta was known for absorbing an incredible amount of punishment – and dishing out even more. But tragically, his sadomasochistic rage exceeded the boundaries of the prizefight ring. His downward spiral from a hard, lean slugger to a pathetic, bloated, two-bit nightclub performer is depicted here with uncompromising detail. As La Motta’s well-intentioned brother, Joe Pesci received a Best Supporting Actor Academy Award nomination. And newcomer Cathy Moriarty is “perfect as La Motta’s blond, sexy, sloe-voiced, teenaged wife” (Los Angeles Times). As written by Paul Schrader and Madrik Martin, Raging Bull is a movie full of anger and nonstop violence, but always with an edge of humanity. |

Description | In his Oscar winning role Dustin Hoffman joins Hollywood heart-throb Tom Cruise and Barry Levinson (Good Morning Vietnam) to bring a funny and moving tale of brotherly love to the screen. Heartless Charlie Babbitt expects a vast inheritance after his estranged father dies. But Raymond, his institutionalised older brother, someone he’s been totally unaware of, is willed the entire fortune instead. Raymond is an “autistic savant” with severely limited mental abilities in some areas but with genius gifts in others. And when Charlie kidnaps Raymond, the cray cross-country drive back to Los Angeles teaches them both a few lessons in life. For as they overcome their mutual distrust of each other, a deep bond is forged as they painfully share past memories, present problems and a possible shining future together. |
