Jake’s arrest follows the collapse of his marriage with Vickie and relationship with Joey so, when he spends time in his dimly lit jail cell, nobody can comfort him, and he is left alone with his worst enemy: himself. Alienation reflects how Jake’s internal struggles destroy the relationships around him. The romantic opening credits characterize him as a graceful, solitary man, while the the second introduction to Jake, where, as an overweight, washed-out has-been, he practices his stand-up comedy lines (which also functions as the film’s ending), depicts the pity of his frank loneliness. Within the first images of Raging Bull, we view Jake as an isolated, melancholic figure.
