We Love Martin Scorsese
(R) USA – 1 hr 54 min
1976 · d. Martin Scorsese
Starring Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Cybill Shepherd, Harvey Keitel
Bolstered by Paul Schrader’s ferocious script and Bernard Herrmann’s haunting score, Taxi Driver represents Martin Scorsese’s vision at its most vivid and potent. Amid the chaos and squalor of ‘70s New York City, cab driver Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro)—“god’s lonely man”—comes to see himself as an avenging angel against the forces of depravity.
