FWIW...I think Raging Bull IS his finest film...the other films I mention go against the grain...For instance New York,New York was shot entirely on the sound stages @ MGM/Sony Studios...the New York sets were recreated in the 40's method before location shooting...In NY/NY DeNiro gives his most understated/nuanced performance of his career (see Falling In Love for another example)...he IMO was overlooked by the Academy for that film unjustly....
