The film, starring Dustin Hoffman and Jon Voight as “Ratso” Rizzo and Joe Buck, took home the Oscar for best picture at the 42nd Academy Awards in 1970. The movie won Oscars for De Niro and editor Thelma Schoonmaker, and also was nominated for best picture, director, sound, and supporting actor ( Joe Pesci ) and actress (Moriarty). Offering a more behind-the-scenes look at a groundbreaking film is Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Glenn Frankel whose book goes behind John Schlesinger’s 1969 film Midnight Cowboy. And the making of Raging Bull, with a screenplay further sculpted by Mardik Martin ( Mean Streets ), became therapy and rebirth for the filmmaker. ( Farrar, Straus and Giroux, Available now)
