"Taxi Driver," the iconic 1976 crime drama directed by Martin Scorsese, follows Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro), a troubled Vietnam War veteran who becomes a taxi driver in New York City. As Travis navigates the gritty and chaotic streets of the city, he becomes increasingly disillusioned with the corruption and depravity he encounters. His growing obsession with the beautiful Betsy (Cybill Shepherd), a political campaign worker, and his desire to clean up the city's seedy underbelly lead him down a dangerous path. The film explores themes of alienation, loneliness, and the dark side of urban life, culminating in a shocking and explosive finale. With standout performances from De Niro, Jodie Foster as a young prostitute named Iris, and a stellar supporting cast including Albert Brooks, "Taxi Driver" remains a gripping and haunting masterpiece that delves deep into the psyche of a man on the edge. Scorsese's masterful direction and the film's gritty realism have cemented its status as a cinematic classic that continues to resonate with audiences decades after its release.
