Taxi Driver
“On every street in every city in this country, there's a nobody who dreams of being somebody. He's a lonely forgotten man desperate to prove that he's alive.”
Martin Scorsese's "Taxi Driver" (1976) immerses viewers in the nocturnal Manhattan streets through the eyes of Travis Bickle, a sleep-deprived and disillusioned loner. As a cab driver, Bickle's nights are a descent into isolation and madness, his grip on reality slipping as he fixates on violent solutions to perceived moral decay. Robert De Niro's performance captures the fractured psyche of a man adrift in a city that mirrors his deteriorating mental state.
