Synopsis
The story chronicles the career of Jake LaMotta in the 1940's as a world middleweight boxing champion.
He is prone to fits of violence, and his brother Joey (Pesci) tries to keep the lid on.
He marries Vickie Thailer (Moriarty), and she becomes the object of his occasional rages.
But most of his anger is expressed in the boxing ring, where he takes a huge amount of punishment, but the other guys look a lot worse.
