Jay Glennie has interviewed the cast and crew of Martin Scorsese’s iconic film Raging Bull, starring Robert De Niro, Joe Pesci and Cathy Moriarty. Raging Bull the making of by Jay Glennie from Coattail Publications with unparalleled contributions from Robert De Niro, Martin Scorsese, Joe Pesci, Paul Schrader & Irwin Winkler. Limited Edition - Only 1980 Copies Printed The generosity of spirit from Irvine, Danny, John and Andrew, and the cast and crew, in bringing this book together has been wonderful. Jay Glennie: “What can I say?! To work with so many of my personal heroes in creating this homage to one of my favourite books and films, has once again been a dream gig.

We come to understand how the man who begun it all, Irvine Welsh, absolutely adored the adaptation. We learn how Iggy Pop, Underworld, Leftfield and Primal Scream and many more came together to give us one of the greatest ever soundtracks. How Ewan McGregor transformed himself in Renton how Ewen Bremner nearly turned down the role of Spud how Robert Carlyle was seduced by Boyle with the tease: “small psychos are the best” how Danny Boyle cast the very British Jonny Lee Miller as Sick Boy and wanted to kill the goodness of Kevin McKidd’s Tommy and how Kelly Macdonald made her acting debut. We discover how Danny Boyle brought together the perfect cast, and how they, in turn, built an unbreakable bond over the seven week shoot.

Our book will explore how Welsh wrote the book, how novel came into producer Andrew Macdonald’s orbit and then screenwriter John Hodge’s memories of the seemingly impossible task of adapting the non-linear novel. Our latest Coattails publication with hundreds of images, many previously unseen, explores the making of the film with exclusive first-hand accounts from the filmmakers themselves.
