Taxi Driver

“Travis Bickle drives cabs all night. He can't sleep. But what he sees whilst cruising the NY city streets he finds so disgusting that it drives him to a climactic moment of violence, which some may deem equally disgusting.

“Many years have passed since nutjob cab driver Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) first washed the scum off the street, and the intervening years have done little to diminish his power to unnerve and rivet.

“Bickle's odyssey, which sees him date a blonde angel (Cybill Shepherd) and save a kid hooker (an astonishing Jodi Foster), remains filmmaking at its most electric a tight, darkly funny Paul Schrader script, allied with Scorseses directorial fireworks and anchored by a wired De Niro working at the top of his game.

“Bickle's yellow box cruising New York (this is the underbelly of the Big Apple that gives Woody Allen nightmares), Scorsese's backseat cameo, Bickle trying on guns, Bernard Herrmans brooding soundtrack, the over the top bloodbath at the finish - everything in this movie gets under your skin and stays with you like fever.

“The blend of Schrader's script, Scorsese's direction and De Niro's performance is both riveting and unnerving. A film that will stay with you forever.” - Empire Magazine
