CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Travis (Robert De Niro) sits quietly as his passenger (Martin Scorsese) describes what it would be like to kill his adulterous wife.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
"All the animals come out at night" -- and one of them is a cabby about to snap. In Martin Scorsese's classic 1970s drama, insomniac ex-Marine Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) works the nightshift, driving his cab throughout decaying mid-'70s New York City, wishing for a "real rain" to wash the "scum" off the neon-lit streets. Chronically alone, Travis cannot connect with anyone, not even with such other cabbies as blowhard Wizard (Peter Boyle). He becomes infatuated with vapid blonde presidential campaign worker Betsy (Cybill Shepherd), who agrees to a date and then spurns Travis when he cluelessly takes her to a porno movie. After an encounter with a malevolent fare (played by Scorsese), the increasingly paranoid Travis begins to condition (and arm) himself for his imagined destiny, a mission that mutates from assassinating Betsy's candidate, Charles Palatine (Leonard Harris), to violently "saving" teen hooker Iris (Jodie Foster) from her pimp, Sport (Harvey Keitel). Travis' bloodbath turns him into a media hero; but has it truly calmed his mind? Written by Paul Schrader, Taxi Driver is an homage to and reworking of cinematic influences, a study of individual psychosis, and an acute diagnosis of the latently violent, media-fixated Vietnam era. Scorsese and Schrader structure Travis' mission to save Iris as a film noir version of John Ford's late Western The Searchers (1956), aligning Travis with a mythology of American heroism while exposing that myth's obsessively violent underpinnings. Yet Travis' military record and assassination attempt, as well as Palatine's political platitudes, also ground Taxi Driver in its historical moment of American in the 1970s. Employing such techniques as Godardian jump cuts and ellipses, expressive camera moves and angles, and garish colors, all punctuated by Bernard Herrmann's eerie final score (finished the day he died), Scorsese presents a Manhattan skewed through Travis' point-of-view, where De Niro's now-famous "You talkin' to me" improv becomes one more sign of Travis' madness. Shot during a New York summer heat wave and garbage strike, Taxi Driver got into trouble with the MPAA for its violence. Scorsese desaturated the color in the final shoot-out and got an R, and Taxi Driver surprised its unenthusiastic studio by becoming a box-office hit. Released in the Bicentennial year, after Vietnam, Watergate, and attention-getting attempts on President Ford's life, Taxi Driver's intense portrait of a man and a society unhinged spoke resonantly to the mid-'70s audience -- too resonantly in the case of attempted Reagan assassin and Foster fan John W. Hinckley. Taxi Driver went on to win the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, but it lost the Best Picture Oscar to the more comforting Rocky. Anchored by De Niro's disturbing embodiment of "God's lonely man," Taxi Driver remains a striking milestone of both Scorsese's career and 1970s Hollywood.

Chris Iceheart the scene also shows the significance of his twisted anger towards minorities especially black people. After this scene, he leaves out of a diner with the one of the cab guys and the one black cab guy says something like “Bye Killer (Travis)” and Travis gives him a subtle death stare. It then leads up to him walking outside staring down a bunch of black guys walking by and some black kids messing with a lady’s purse. This small arc in the story ends with him killing the black guy who was robbing the convenience store which now after that point he feels vindicated and justified in his angry profiling of black people. This twisted deductive reasoning of good vs “the scum of society” leads him to that same thought process when trying to assassinate Palantine and demonstrates his feelings towards the society as a whole.

Nice observation!
I remember renowned actress Jodie Foster [who played the part of 'Iris' in Taxi Driver] being interviewed a few years ago, and she commented that the 70's was arguably the most creative, risk-taking and inventive period ever in film-making. She went on to state that many of the films made during the 70's would never be made today. Taxi Driver is one such film - and scenes like this [including the dreaded 'N' word] would have condemned it to the dustbin. One psychotic telling another psychotic how he planned to kill his wife - can imagine?!? Taxi Driver is my all-time favourite film and to this very day, no other film comes close to depicting one man's loneliness and sense of utter futility as Paul Shrader's Travis Bickle and Martin Scorsese's groundbreaking cinematic portrayal of that. It is a stunning piece of film-making and the slow, intense build-up to an almost inevitable denouement absolutely blew me away when I first saw the film at the cinema in 1976. Today, we have CGI-generated re-tells of not-so-good comic-books and senseless re-makes of films that should be left well alone. A sign of the times I guess - but perhaps it shows better than anything else Hollywood's fixation with quantity over quality and its insatiable desire for the mighty buck.

In 78' he was found bleeding internally in his room and almost died from an OD, or more likely just accumulated drug toxicity (how John Belushi died)/poor health. De Niro convinced him in the hospital to make 'one last' movie, which went on to become 'Raging Bull'.
I really love the cinematography in this shot. The passenger is lit and is sitting in such an odd way it creates an odd sight, couple that with the strange way he talks and the morbid things he's saying and it creates a really unnerving scene, it's a great scene

0:25 "Nah I mean you wouldn't know who lives there, I'm just saying, but you know who lives there?" Scorsese delivered that with excellence haha
In less than 3 minutes, Scorsese gave one of the most chilling performances I've seen in my life.
this is the turning point in the entire movie. Bickle now realizes (in his own perverse way) that he doesn’t have to sit around and take the world’s $h!t or accept it in any way. After this encounter, he realizes that everyone else is wrong and he is justified in his rampage (just as his passenger feels justified in his).

It's weird your profile pic is Kubrick im watching the shining for the first time ina while, which again makes me think of how whenever jack encounters ghosts of the hotel he's looking in a mirror (even when he's locked in the storage room he's looking at a reflective steel door) but Wendy sees shit too, so I think it has to do with the thing about Delbert Grady "always" being there(the overlook) so has jack (as the end shows) jack and Grady had something bad in them that allowed the hotel to fuck with their heads an bring it out in order to kill danny(the twin girls in gradys case) because they have the "shine"(psychic abilities) and the hotel will kinda absorb said shine, so the whole thing with jack looking in the mirror when he sees these things has to do with how he did have a choice to not fulfil the destiny that seems so predetermined by the 1921 4th of July photogragh at the end

This is how you act Quentin! Take notes.
DeNiro is unmatched by how he can act with just his eyes, the way he keeps looking up to that apartment, and in the rearview mirror...it makes you think of all the things that must be running through his mind.
he looks directly into the camera at 0:31
I love that little synchronous head turn/mirror movement at 1:33 for some reason. Details of insanity, man, details.
Travis is like, do not engage with insane persons.....
He probably could have been a solid actor if he wanted
1:25 scorsese does it with that ease man he is acting legend
He spoke nineteen words in less than 3 seconds.
Martin killed this scene. 🤣
This is more than a cameo. It’s a message to woodby directors
People say that the passenger isn't real. I actually think he is, and I also believe he's the one triggering Travis' insanity, cause he reflects so well his thoughts and feelings : pure rage, disgust.

"The whole conviction of my life now rests upon the belief that loneliness, far from being a rare and curious phenomenon, peculiar to myself and to a few other solitary men, is the central and inevitable fact of human existence. When we examine the moments, acts, and statements of all kinds of people -- not only the grief and ecstasy of the greatest poets, but also the huge unhappiness of the average soul…we find, I think, that they are all suffering from the same thing. The final cause of their complaint is loneliness." -- Thomas Wolfe, from the essay, God's Lonely Man, privately printed, 1947.
