STORYLINE:

Taxi Driver (1976) is a gritty and intense character study that delves into the mind of Travis Bickle, a lonely and mentally unstable Vietnam War veteran who works as a nighttime taxi driver in New York City. Disgusted by the urban decay and corruption around him, Travis becomes increasingly detached from reality. His growing obsession with saving a young prostitute named Iris and his desire to cleanse the city of its filth lead him down a violent and dangerous path. The film explores themes of isolation, alienation, and the blurred line between heroism and madness.


STAFF REVIEW:

Taxi Driver (1976), directed by Martin Scorsese, is a masterpiece of American cinema, renowned for its powerful storytelling and iconic performances. Robert De Niro's portrayal of Travis Bickle is haunting and unforgettable, capturing the character's descent into madness with chilling precision. Jodie Foster, as the young prostitute Iris, and Cybill Shepherd, as Betsy, deliver strong supporting performances. Paul Schrader's screenplay is a profound exploration of loneliness and societal decay, while Bernard Herrmann's haunting score enhances the film's unsettling atmosphere. Scorsese's direction, combined with Michael Chapman's evocative cinematography, creates a visceral and immersive experience that remains impactful decades after its release.
