A socially inept NYC cab driver becomes paranoid and lashes out at the world.
A raw, violent movie as famous for it's ferocity as much as it is for it's acclaimed performances. Many consider this DeNiro's finest role. A disturbing urban portrayal that may shock some folks. But great characterizations and a fine supporting cast have helped to push Taxi Driver into the forefront of several harsh, risk taking movies of the 1970's.
Nominated for 4 Oscars including Best Picture.
Directed by Martin Scorsese.
