About this Video:
In this essay, Martin Scorsese discusses personal filmmaking, working with Robert De Niro, how he created his visual style, and more. Scorsese describes Taxi Driver as a "coming of age" film for himself, Paul Schrader, and Robert De Niro as they struggled with finding their place in life in the 1970's. It was a film they couldn't go on without making.

Even more than Raging Bull Taxi Driver was Scorsese's Citizen Kane. It contains so many ideas and is still a revelation to watch nearly 50 years after it was made. A true masterpiece and a real work of art made by three young men who didn't realise they were geniuses, and I wish they'd collaborated more often. A landmark of cinema.

@KutWrite 5 лет назад

Scorsese's narrative reminded me so strongly of his character in the film, sitting in the back of the cab, calmly describing how he was going to kill his cheating wife. I'd never before noticed the little cameo where Scorsese is sitting on that wall and watches "Betsy" as she goes by. He's so scary yet charismatic.

@adamkoyn792 2 года назад

Absolutely one of the greatest of all time. It came out at the right time but is also timeless. The screenplay by Schrader is so brutally raw and honest with every word. The narration style was so inventive that it still hasn't been matched in quite that way in almost 50 years; what other movies can you remember a narrator making a verbal correction or repetition out loud while narrating from their journal? Genius. The acting was just seamless. The story is tragic and, in its own way, beautiful. The slight ambiguity and editing trickery at the end to introduce Bernard Hermann's score with the credits is just PERFECT. This film was definitely one of the few that first nurtured the deep love for cinema that I have today. I love you, Marty!

@PiCheZvara 3 года назад

Definitely one of the best movies of all time and one of the peaks of American cinema. IMO Scorsese's best movie. Very influential in terms of style too, I am convinced that if it wasn't for Taxi Driver's dark New York filled with neon lights, Blade Runner wouldn't look the way it does. And it's obvious Todd Philips' Joker borrowed a lot from Taxi Driver too. The story, acting, the incredible, one of a kind atmosphere...just a perfect movie.

@DG-lo Год назад

A few quick thoughts... 5:32 That technique worked perfectly - it sets apart Travis even when close to people, but doesn't do the same for others. 6:26 The dolly (camera movement) here feels like the street giving Travis his only way out, so to speak. Like it's saying to him: I know you don't like me, but I'm all you've got. That goes hand in hand with the unease Scorsese talks about; it must lead somewhere bad. 8:29 This moment may slightly (and entirely temporarily) break from the idea of focalizing the movie through Travis, but it stresses everything about its aggression, alienation, and apprehension. We've probably all had someone walk by us like that... And we've all done it to someone else too, without ever getting to know them, without ever realizing what's going on in their lives. "Just some guy in the street."

My friend watched taxi driver with me and by the end with the shootout and music he said he was on the verge of an anxiety attack, I feel that, it’s kind of incredibly overwhelming. Scorsese made and shot it like when you do something out of your comfort zone just based on adrenaline and you feel sick and a rush at the same time, like literally wtf.

@SRDhain 4 года назад

I'm a fan of Scorsese's work & his own restlessness which has mellowed slightly with age (he's almost 80, so that's understandable), is what comes across in many of his films. As do themes of anxiety, being on the edge, complex issues relating to (pardon the pun) not necessarily being able to relate freely to one's environment, and the concurrence of that becoming a measured disconnect within the relationships in general in his films' schema. Subsequently, everything is tinged with a slight edge of mania and also guilt. As a result, his films have a warmth and charm, because they capture the complexities and the obvious darknesses , as well as the inner light within humans, so well.

@55tranquility 11 месяцев назад

PTSD and also perhaps on the autistic spectrum? But definitely damaged by his war experiences, the main problem is he seems to have little insight at all into his inner struggles - so can only look for external solutions which just makes things worse. His lifestyle is driving him down and down, even the most put together person - put them in a seedy one room apartment, tell them not to sleep, work long hours and nights driving a cab in rough areas, eat only junk food, drink spirits throughout the day, take pills uppers and downers throughout the day, don’t do anything else apart from go to porno movies, don’t take a break - most people would go pretty nuts!

The scene with Keitel and Foster should have been cut. It's an interesting scene, and shows us his hold on her, yes. But it's really the only scene that Travis isn't either in, or looking on. It breaks the point of view. I wonder if there were discussions about this during the editing stage.

@fragr33f74 5 лет назад

I think the scene works to show that ultimately Travis is taking action for himself rather than for Iris. I think that's backed up by Iris' horrified reaction to finale.

@freddylubin 5 лет назад

@@fragr33f74 I can think of another important reason, in how we understand how "Sport" is holding onto Iris by being a father figure / lover, and playing into her adolescent needs. It's a really scary scene, and I like it, especially with the Bernard Hermann music on the recored player. But, it cuts us from the PoV the entire film built. There are a few scenes, like at the campaign office, where Travis isn't involved, until we see that he was watching from outside.
