was born on Augin New York's Manhattan borough to artists Robert De Niro, Sr., and Virginia Admiral, who divorced when their son was two years of age. The result is the best movie of Robert De Niro’s incredible career.One of the most accomplished and respected actors of the 20th century and beyond, Oscar winner Robert De Niro is widely known as an intense and formidable presence, starring in a string of acclaimed films directed by Martin Scorsese, including "Raging Bull" (1980) and "Goodfellas" (1990), as well as such features as "The Godfather Part II" (1974), "1900" (1976), "Heat" (1995), "Meet the Parents" (2000) and "Silver Linings Playbook" (2012). The script was written by the great Paul Schrader, music composed by the legendary Bernard Hermann, and Directed by none other than Martin Scorsese. How a person can be corrupted in the same ways they condemn, simply because they don’t feel loved. In the end, Taxi Driver is so upsetting because it shows us the pit of loneliness. Because of this, he only grows more and more resentful. He’s an unwilling participant to what he perceives as the moral decay of society. And Travis sees this happen before his eyes. The streets are filled with crime rape, murder, and exploitation to name a few. But in this job, he develops a general misanthropy to the world. To combat the sleepless nights, Travis takes a job as a taxi driver in New York City. Robert De Niro plays the starring role of Travis Bickle, a former US Marine, who struggles with insomnia.
The film has notoriously been associated as “inspiration” for violent crime.Īs time has gone on, Taxi Driver seems to become more and more taboo to praise. I think the reason Taxi Driver is so hard to talk about is because there’s so much truth in it.
