  • I think youtube deleted the 13,000,000 views this used to have so it wouldn't go mainstream.

  • While Brian De Palma was making Scarface, this movie came out. He goes to see it and as soon as it started, as soon as this came on, he shook his head, sighed, and said "no matter what you do, no matter how good you are, there's always Scorsese."

  • Great theme! My favourite movie from Scorsese!

  • U may know how to direct raul but no offense I know how to create a real touching and riveting story but I would luv to work with u

  • Comment removed

  • I come here for my daily soul food

  • Song?

  • Song?

  • Touching

  • best acting performance in human history

  • i want these wall paper

  • Greatest opening in the history of film

  • thumbs up if you are falled in love with this sequence

  • @caracazo22 learn to spell

  • @marklosextremus Ok.... emm.... F-U-C-K Y-O-U!!!

  • @caracazo22

    I fell in love with it dunno about falled though.

  • Absolutely Amazing Film

  • @emptyleonardo estoy de acuerdo

  • Martin Scorsese > Film Industry.

  • Simply a Masterpiece :)

  • great film with great music and robert de niro plays a brillant part as jake la motta 

  • @PrestonPlante - raging bull was filmed before godfather 3 but i do think godfather 3 has the same music at the end. best opening credits ever this. so simple but brilliant

  • @dshishod yep your right, same music, made famous many many years before by Raging Bull. Sums up the quality of Godfather III doesn't it.

  • @matflorence97 no the best movie of scorsese is goodfellas

  • this one of the best scene like that music great oppening and i have just 22 yeards old but its amazing thise credits in that times not like today the credits sucks

  • This shot fills me with so many indescribable emotions

  • @FilmDisney  My thoughts exactly

  • Beautiful, iconic scene that captures the essence of the movie.

  • I like Michael Bay. And Zack Snyder. And Scorsese.

  • Its like a Human Storm.

  • Such an amazing begining to a movie. Top 5 movie openings. Another favourite would be Sergio Leone's "The Man With No Name" Trilogy openings.

  • Great opening, one of the best is The Shining tho, but the music in this is very touchy.....but one of my favorites movies is Raging Bull.

  • I can watch this 2 min clip repeatedly with amazement than transformers 1-3.

  • isnt this song from the godfather 3?

  • @PrestonPlante Yes you're right also another Scorsese masterpiece

  • かっこー ♪ かっこー ♪

  • @ApocalypseNow2011 I wouldn't go that far, but it's good. I'd say that he intros to Taxi Driver, Vertigo, Psycho, Full Metal Jacket and Eyes Wide Shut are some of the best ever. This one is good, but it's not great. The modern looking red text really kills it for me, considering that the rest of the film is done in the style of 1940's and 50's films.

  • the greatest boxing film of all time ,back in the day these men were true warriors

  • My great uncle Brian is having this played when he's just about to be cremated, Gonna miss him so much and he loved this movie and I couldn't think of a better song. Rest in piece uncle.

  • I don't remember how I found out, but recently I noticed that the ring ropes look exactly like the sheets we use to write down music. It blew my mind. So perfect.

    Happy birthday Jake LaMotta.

  • ...birthday so unforgettable ..

  • You know, I'm writing from Italy and today I turn 49.. Exactly 31 yrs ago, on the day I turned 18, a friend of my family took at my home Jake La Motta, yes, himself in person, Who was traveling at that time in his country of heritage.. We had wine and italian treats for the whole evening and this wonderful fighter told us a number of his nice jokes in an amusing hybrid ita-american language.. What a great evening I will never forget.. Thanks Jake for being that great, and for making my 18th bir

  • raging bull sucks. you know whats a good movie? Transformers: Revenge of the fallen. LOL

  • @llamasarus1 WTF !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @llamasarus1 Obvious troll is obvious

  • It's Mascagni.

  • This is a great film, but Taxi Driver is still better.

  • whats the name of that beautiful music?

  • @ripmowt It's the intermission of Cavalleria Rusticana by Muscagni.

  • @ripmowt It's from Cavalleria Rusticana by Muscagni, amazingly the intermission. The rest of the opera's crap.

  • 22 people used to be good-lookin'.

  • Jake la Motta was an interesting personality. The perfect one for de niro to act as. I really hope a movie as great as this one would one day be made of mike tyson which is able to capture his emotions and psyche just as how de niro captures la motta's in Raging Bull

  • hey, where's the bullets? the chicks? some gunshots? the action maaaaaan.

  • @josmdg hey maaaaaan how about you shut your fuckin mouth and enjoy the brilliance of the opening scene?

  • Did you guys hear?! There was a horrible shooting! Exactly 22 deaths!

  • Bravo !

  • If there was a God, and he was a genius in every aspect, and he decided to create a film, and he used raw epicness and power to create the opening sequence, it still wouldn't be as good as this.

  • no doubt.....the greatest actor/director combination in cinematic history....deniro/scorsese

  • # Have you ever seen a one legged man tryin' to dance his way free If you've ever seen a one legged man then you've seen me hardnessofthisworld 4 months ago # I always leave with less than I had before bet I can make you smile when the blood it hits the floor Tell me can you ask for anything more These things that have comforted me I drive away This place that is my home I cannot stay My only faith is in the broken bones and bruises I display
  • Pure fucking genius. Thats it

  • I coulda been a contender...

  • Un film anthologique !!

  • my funeral song

  • @haylemonkey Can I come? It sounds like it's gonna have great music!

  • "Cavalleria Rusticana".....Italian pride!!!

  • Radio 5 live are airing a 1 hour special about the making of raging bull, with interviews from Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese, and jake la motta

    9pm-10pm sunday 24th april.

    bbc radio 5 live

  • I seriously don't understand who are these 21 ppl who disliked this video

  • @dipanjans just think of the countless thousands of idiots out there whose minds have been the willing dumping ground for the lowest level of tv and film over the past ten years alone and I guess 21 dislikes isn't remarkable, although I share your pain. peace, MK

  • Perhaps the most beautiful opening sequence in cinematic history. My wife chose this music to be played while we signed the register at our wedding (I'd agreed to it without really listening to her!) - it was the most amazing surprise and still makes me smile (ok, cry......just a bit).

  • 21 people lost to their inner demons

  • Great scene from a great movie and i have to say that no 1 comes close to scorseses directing skills... directors now a days need big budgets and cgi to make a hit. Apart from clint eastwood i dont see any other great directors :(

  • Defiantly best intro ever, emotional, powerful, simple and harrowing all in one.

  • One of the greatest filmmakers of all time.. Scorsese, simply genius

  • Best Intro ever!

  • On my list of top 10 movies I ever saw. De Niro's perfomance and Scorsese's homage to Italian neo realism has rarely been equaled and never surpassed

  • Jake La Motta is as obnoxious a man as you could find: foul mouthed, ignorant, violent, mysognistic, self-destructive...yet when he is a bloated, broken has-been beating the walls of his cell, you feel his pain as yours. Acting is too mild a word to describe what De Niro does here.

  • this opening scene is just one example of why de niro/scorcese are the greatest actor/director combination in cinematic history....probably greatest opening to a movie ever....beautiful stuff...

  • Is the same somg at the end of godfather III??? sounds a little similar

  • @folladordeprostis its the same song.. Mascagni's Intermezzo of Cavalleria Rusticana

  • @juicyi3ig hahah

  • @jasper2008ify BRO YOUR AWESOME AS FUCK, ya i geuss i was too pessimistic, PTA is a master director, and if u watch the movie closely he is just like scorsese, the camera is ALWAYS moving the tracking shot when daniel is drawing the machine is like the one in Aviator, and the characterizations are SO BOLD in both their movies, and pta has said that Taxi driver is his most favorite film of all time, it makes sense that he is the new martin scorsese. REALLY YOU SHOUOLD TALK TO ME AOBUT FILMS I ENJ

  • @jasper2008ify ya man i am happy to find a person who agrees with me cause its been really bothering me that a movies like avatar are being nominated for oscars and stupid shit like thaat. like its really just been bugging me. You know there is one director who i believe is the martin scorsese of our time, paul thomas anderson, there will be blood is a pure masterpeice, but other than paul thoms anderson and maybe todd field, we are fucked. if you like good movies, check out these directors.

  • @malows1234

    Spike Jonze, Wes Anderson, and Darren Arronofsky are also excellent directors. Film making isn't dead yet :)

  • @jasper2008ify ya i mean even spielberg who made ET, which to be honest is really great, not too much CGI, but i am just saying how can you hope when there is practically no chance, look at oscar winners of the past 2 years, slumdog millionaire, hurt locker, which are good movies, but come on...... WE had taxi driver godfather in the same decade, and this decade we haven't seen one movie be as good as that, i mean for some fucked up reason dark knight is being hailed as a masterpeices. No chance

  • @jasper2008ify martin scorsese was forced to cast dicaprio in the role just so that the studio would finance the project and the movie sucked cause the studio edited the whole fucking thing, and scorsese fought it, but you know how it is. HOLYWOOD studio vs the guy who loves to make movies. FUCK. DONT YOU GET IT? THERE WILL NEVER EVER EVER NEVER BE A GODFATHER AGIAN, and there will probly never be a scorsese either, cause the audiences are dum muther fuckers these days. JUST SAYING LOl. truth.

  • @jasper2008ify YOUR TOO OPTEMISTIC LOL. ok lets think about this for a second, avatar just made 2.7 billion dollars, with a shitty storyline, shitty script and a lot of CGI. Transformers made 900 mllion dollars, with one of the shitteist directors on the planet, megan fox and robots. Raging bull made 40 million dollars on a 25 million dollar budget. YUP HOLLYWOOD WILL LOVE TO MAKE ANOTHER RAGING bull.  BY the way the reason scorsese worked with dicaprio is cause thats the only way GONY get mone

  • This song makes me think of the ups and downs in life, and the tranquility of redemption, and dying peacefully without regrets.

  • where can i dl this anyway

  • @Happyduderawr The title to search for is: Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana - might be on itunes

  • @Happyduderawr The title to search for is: Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana - might be on itunes

  • this song makes me want to beat a woman to death

  • @malows1234 Yeah Michael Bay is the worst director in the world. This piece of shit never filmed art and is content about it. Wow what a laugh that this asshole has the right to judge Scorsese.

  • @Ada1613 totally man it made my blood boil, and he was commenting how if scorsese films were better they would make more money than his films, and that people pay to watch what they like. SIGH i really wish scorsese got more money than fagits like BAY, it just breaks my heart to see such hard working talent unrewarded. Am i alone on that or SHOULD HOLLYWOOD FUCK ITSELF

  • @Ada1613

    I would rather think Zack Snyder is worse than Bay, but I digress. They are both horrible.

  • @Ada1613 but what about transformers 3?

    

  • fuck avatar, this is a real movie.

  • The opening to Raging Bull is better than most films.

  • This intro is orgasmic

  • mnogo tujen unstrumental i mnogo hubav

  • No techno-wizardry here. That's what the greats like Scorsese can do and people like Michael Bay can't. They can shoot the simplest most uncluttered scene ever and make it beautiful, transcendent, emotive, powerful, sonorous and ultimately compelling. Filmmaking at its very best.

  • @wat870 man martin scorsese is the best, u should look on youtube michael bay said in a interview that he thinks martin scorsese makes boring films, and that taxi driver was boring and that scorsese uses vulgar language to get his point across... its on youtube you guys should check it out.

    FUCKING MICHAEL BAY SUCKS COCK

  • @wat870 If there was ever a cinematic moment that captured the definition of the word 'elegaic'.......

  • @wat870 Great point about Michael Bay, very true.

  • @wat870 well said

  • @wat870 That's because Michael Bay works in Palookaville......haha

  • HIP HOP

  • Martin Scorsese is the Father of Classics.

    <3

  • Best intro ever.

  • I was wrong. It's not prelude. It's intermezzo... from Cavalleria Rusticana. Prelude is even better though!

  • You know it just amazes me how everybody knows Rocky,but nobody knows Raging Bull. And don't get me wrong Rocky is a great film but Raging bull is a master piece

  • what is the name of this song?

  • @Gringo532 The music played in this clip is the prelude from an Italian opera called Cavalleria Rusticana by Pietro Mascagni.

  • @jasper2008ify too bad Chuck Norris never cries

  • This opening illustrates how when we all have to battle our inner demons, its like a boxing ring.: only two of us, no one else. and if we don't emerge victoriously, what's the point in living? and i love how we don't actually see its De Niro. so it the figure alone represents everyone in the world so to show how at one point in out lives, we have to battle our inner demons. whether they're easy or hard.

  • why there are no movies like this you dumb fucks called entertainment

  • the opening of this film = a film scene where men are permitted to get teary-eyed and not have their masculinity called into question.

    :-)

  • Impresioanante inicio de una impresionante pelicula

  • Whatever became of LORI ANNE FLAX?? She was amazing and beautiful as jake's first wife. I wonder what happened....? She has no other film credits.

  • *sheds a tear*

  • Best opening scene to a movie ever

  • 22 people need to step in the ring and go a few rounds with a pissed-off Jake LaMotta

    XD

  • one of my fav films of all time

  • As great a syntesis between the moving image and music as you are likely to find. Says everything about Jake LaMotta without much at all: passionate, elegant, yet almost vulgar and cheap. Perfect.

  • this guy lived a tumultuous life and i didnt even know he was still alive today

    jake lamotta

  • And again. I cried.

  • the most beautiful opening titles ever!

  • Beautiful.

  • Forget that Rocky ballshit, this film is the truth!

  • the big man

  • I cried at the end of this movie

  • chartoff and irwin winkler.........the boxing movie guys (Rocky 1-6)

  • @williamrafe1 actually 1-5 they co-produced

    Rocky 6

  • 21 people are hopeless losers with no taste.

  • The Black and white film is a masterpice because it represents when Jake Lamotta was really in the League.

  • @PPSH41callofduty i think they filmed it that way because in the book, la motta said early on that he always remembered his life as an old black and white film

  • how ironic that such peaceful and nice instrumental music be for such a violent film.

    if you wanna see real boxing then watch this, not that rubbish from rocky!!! watch the scene where he punches oneof his opponenents and the spit flys towards the screen almost as if it is going to hit the tv audience!!!

    fucking brilliant story and lesson of one mans own self destruction!!

  • @nicky29031977 yes, it was deliberately done. Like Nino Rota's theme for The Godfather...very beautiful, what you would not expect for a violent gangster movie.

  • @10sDog raging bull, the godfather, taxi driver, clockwork orange( singing in the rain ). all very violent films with contradictory sounding music and yet they all work so well for films which are classics!

  • @nicky29031977 its funny cuz it was made by the same people as rocky (the producers, not scoresese)

  • @williamrafe1 fair enough, but when i said rubbish from rocky i was on about that it's too fairy tale and sentimental and nothing to do with realism and everyday life which raging bull is!!!

  • @nicky29031977 u know, i never thought rocky was like u said, fairy tale until i read raging bull, but u also have to see that rocky is a movie, and in movies things arent realistic. this is real shit, u know?

  • very nice picture indeed

  • Beautiful film

  • the limits of the ring make me think of a bull pen.......

    and yeah. this shot is real'ly power'ful.

  • Love how the camera is a little panned to the left instead of centred, allowing DeNiro to have move up and down as well as sideways.

    Brilliant scene.

  • love it

  • where is the "omg this movie is sick" button??

  • Comment removed

  • La Motta: italian origin

    De Niro: italian origin

    Scorsese: italian origin

    Mascagni: italian.

    Nuff said.

  • @kizugrey Michael Chapman: Mutt American

    And for my money, he's the real star of this shot.

  • @HJune88 good but not the best.

  • @kizugrey

    De Niro was a mutt, he wasn't a real Italian. His Father was Irish and Italian, and his mother was German, French, and Dutch.

  • @CheechMarin4TW

    When did Antarctica become a country with people living in it?

  • @CheechMarin4TW my friend but his face is typical italian nothing to do with irish german french or dutch

  • I love this dance of Raging Bull...

  • This does cater for all the senses .... all heart.

  • 21 peaople need to fuck off

  • @OGAndizzo Well said. Had to laugh out loud at that comment!!

  • "Come on! BRING it over here!! your going to let it overcook! then the steak is no good. "

  • I'd buy a movie ticket only to watch this opening...

  • @ferry888 i agree the music brings tears to my eyes

  • @ferry888

    buy the movie ticket just to see the film. cause its great

  • Jake La Mota = Wife beater, crap boxer....just had a chin and will of iron.

  • @WALLY1234556 everything except the wife beater part was completely accurate!

  • @PPSH41callofduty he did beat up his women, well known fact, read Deniros book by J.Baxtor, or Boxing history Books, They had to cut a lot of domestic violence from the film.

  • @WALLY1234556 Oh I didn't know that they had to cut it out of the movie thanks.

  • one of the greatest films ever made. a stunning performance by De Niro

  • keep over to the left robert, so we can show the credits up the middle...

  • i'm going to learn how to play this song one day.

  • One of the best movie ever made

  • One of the greatest opening sequence's in movie history.

  • martin scorsese really out did himself with this one haha

  • just watched and studied this for my film studies class. so amazing. one of the best movies off all time
