One of the Most Influential Films

Rating: 10/10 (6 August 2006)

The Story: The story is of a lonely man named Travis Bickle, he is a loner by day and a Taxi Driver by night. His views on the world are very limited and he just wants to no longer be the man in the dark whilst others are in the lime light. Then, one day... a beautiful woman with Scorsese's fantastic white glow shows up.
I love this film with all my passion. This is for many reasons, One is because of Scorsese, he is a living genius, just like Kubrick. Whether it's the screenplay he chooses, or the camera angles and sheer brilliance of how he portrays a character's emotions on screen. He is truly the master. Another is Mr. Robert DeNiro. Probabally the greatest actor of all time. His method acting is clearly present in this piece of groundbreaking film. It is one of the only films where I can say, "I relate to this guy...", after watching the film, you will know how crazy that sounds, to say "I can relate to Travis Bickle." This fantastic film entered the world in 1976. From that day forward, it will always be remembered as a classic, and one of my favourite movies of all time.
Rent it. Buy it. Love it.
