Taxi Driver
(1976)The seminal 1976 Scorsese/De Niro flick. Paul Schrader's script surveys Manhattan through the eyes of an insomniac, sleaze-obsessed Vietnam vet. Scorsese pours a century of cinema into his vision of urban inferno and De Niro's Travis Bickle forever cruises the avenues of our imaginations, a psychopath as tender, lonely and deranged as Psycho's Norman Bates, but so much more real.
