You talking to me?


Taxi Driver (1976)

Directed by Martin Scorsese this film stars Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Cybill Shepherd and Harvey Keitel. A lonely veteran in New York struggles to find companionship in a world that disgusts him.

There is much to like about this film straight from the slow burning nature of the story to some of the great cinematography. We get a glimpse of a really dirty, gritty and more realistic world that a lot of Hollywood had portrayed up to that point. When it comes to the plot the story works really well and the subtle nature of the ending makes a really enjoyable change.

5/5
