Notes

Scorsese's films-and his abundant film knowlege-have always been an integral part of the Criterion Collection. Whether interviewing the late director Michael Powell or unraveling his own means and methods, Scorsese's commentaries are as intense as his films. These Director Approved editions provide an opportunity to learn from a modern master.


Voted best film of the 1980s, Martin Scorsese's brilliant biopic of boxer Jake La Motta receives special treatment from Criterion. The exclusive widescreen transfer shows off every nuance of the black and white cinematography, giving added power to Robert De Niro's amazing performance as La Motta. Joe Pesci plays Joey La Motta, Jake's brother and manager, with special verve.

The CAV Special Edition features:

Audio commentary by director Martin Scorsese and editor Thelma Schoonmaker
Historic Jake La Motta boxing and interview footage
The shooting script and original storyboards
Publicity and production photographs
