14. Raging Bull
One of Martin Scorsese's most memorable films, Raging Bull has only grown in acclaim since its release. It is based on the autobiography of Jake LaMotta, and follows a boxer who is unable to control his own inner demons. Shot in glorious black and white, Raging Bull is the best looking movie Scorsese has ever turned out and there are a number of remarkable sequences. DeNiro's powerhouse biopic uses visuals to portray a man who can't separate his boxing career from his life outside the ring. Scorsese uses a variety of tricks such as dolly shots, steadicam, slow motion, POV shots, and others in order to fully involve the audience in the movie. Winning an Academy Award for De Niro, Raging Bull is now considered one of the best American films of all time, in large part thanks to its stunning visuals.
