Taxi Driver

Description

By Martin Scorsese. With Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Peter Boyle. A taxi driver in New York, a Marine returning from Vietnam, roams the city's neighborhoods at night, seeking a bit of humanity and light... A dive into the hell of alienation and urban loneliness, this masterpiece by Martin Scorsese owes as much to Michael Chapman's cinematography as to Bernard Herrmann's unforgettable music, to Paul Schrader's screenplay inspired by La Nausée, L’Étranger, or Crime and Punishment, as to the performances of Robert De Niro and Jodie Foster. The actress's first major film role, she was only 12 at the time, and fifty years later, the film impresses with Foster's confidence and professionalism, who has stated she wanted to work with Martin Scorsese after discovering Mean Streets (1973).
