Taxi Driver

A mentally unstable veteran works as a nighttime taxi driver in New York City, where the perceived decadence and sleaze fuels his urge for violent action.

The blend of Schrader’s script, Scorsese’s direction and De Niro’s performance is both riveting and unnerving. A film that will stay with you forever.

Empire

Scorsese’s seductive, dreamlike imagery and Schrader’s voiceover narration draw the audience into Bickle’s head and reveal the world through his eyes, which see only ugliness and filth.
