This is a biopic of Middle Weight Champion of the World, Jake Lamotta who fought from 1941-1954. The film opens up with his testimony to congress under the Kennedy years and flashes back to his teens when he first became a fighter. It then jumps to 1967, 68, then 1982, skipping the whole reason why he was famous.
Most of the film takes place after his retirement. It shows a man attempting to avoid working for the mob while having all mob friends. He lived his life with two regrets: The kid he killed as an amateur and the fight he threw to Billy Fox.
The acting was great. William Forsythe was convincing even through that transition from teen actor playing him , to his adult self wasn't smooth because the younger self didn't look nothing like William Forsythe.
Story about a boxer without much boxing.
Guide: F-word. Stripper nudity.
