The movie’s all-but entirely monochrome – black and white to be precise – with only a couple of home videos shown within the film coming out as colour (and also intentionally faded for effect).

It may not be absolutely perfect, but it’s unquestionably close, and almost impossible to fault. But thankfully the earlier edition already sported an outstanding video presentation which is undeniably demo-quality, and certainly the best that we have ever seen from the Scorsese masterpiece. On the downside, this means no remastering, and this means that the (admittedly minor) issues with the aforementioned release have simply been carried over here. Raging Bull comes to UK Region-Free Blu-ray with – as far as I can tell – exactly the same 1080p High Definition video presentation, in the movie’s original theatrical aspect ratio of widescreen 1.85:1, as we got for the original early 2009 Blu-ray release.
