"Angry Bull" is a work during the low life of director Martin Scorsese. He took drugs, divorced, and was on the verge of bankruptcy. Such a work can be said to be an outlet of his emotions at the time, like self-punishment. The story of Wang Lamota found the soul resonance, and filmed how a boxer went from success to destruction.
La Motta has the ability to let all those close to him leave him in despair, so that he finally gave up on himself.
I have different feelings in each period. At first, this film gave me a kind of grief and indignation, and the soundtrack of "Country Knight" was even more emotional. When I just graduated, I was excited, and I was full of anger and energy. , Dissatisfied with the status quo. Secretly gather energy and give me a stage where mad bulls can fight.
Looking at it now, there are different feelings, unable to understand his perverted desire to control, the whole is a bastard, his suspicion, suspicious personality always drives others to go crazy, self-inflicted, this kind of person usually has no friends and cannot get the friendship of others. , He doesn't care, the only respectable thing is that this tough guy is unwilling to cooperate with the underground order in the circle.
In the end he lost his family, relatives, and the bars closed and went to jail. In the prison, he beat the wall to vent, crying and cursing himself for being stupid, full of remorse, and heartbreaking. The ending film director quoted a sentence from the Bible. : I used to be blind, but now I see it! Time passed, the bull had repented.
The reason why this film is classic is that there is another kind of personality power in La Mota. In the last game, La Mota went to self-destruction. He stood motionless in that place, clamoring to encourage the opponent to attack him. , Like a punishment to himself, until his face was smeared with blood and blood was flying, he still stood and smiled and said to the other party: I'm still standing here, you didn't knock me down. Just as Hemingway's famous saying: A person can be destroyed, but cannot be defeated! At this point, La Mota, please accept my respect!
