According to producer Irwin Winkler, he and Robert De Niro didn't have many creative disagreements on the film, save for when De Niro wanted to gain the weight to look like the older Jake LaMotta. Winkler, fearing for the actor's health, had objected and suggested the use of prosthetics and make-up, as they had money in the budget. But as a method actor who wanted to stay true to the real-life subject, De Niro opted to gain the weight required.
