  • "Ein einzelgängerischer Taxifahrer in New York, der von der Stadt und seinem Lebensmilieu zugleich fasziniert und abgestoßen wird, steigert sich in den missionarischen Wahn, etwas gegen die Flut von Schmutz und Niedrigkeit in der Großstadt unternehmen zu müssen. Schwer bewaffnet beginnt er einen tragischen Kreuzzug durch die nächtlichen Straßen. Mit kühler Eindringlichkeit und analytischer Präzision schildert der ungemein dichte Film die psychischen Deformationen seines Helden. Zugleich verdeutlicht er, daß der Ausbruch individueller Gewalt mit einem allgemeinen Klima latenter Brutalität und Abstumpfung korrespondiert. Ein Thriller, der intensive Wirklichkeitsbeobachtung mit den mythischen Qualitäten des traditionellen Genrefilms verbindet."
  • "Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro), an honorably discharged U.S. Marine, is a lonely and depressed man living in Manhattan, New York. He becomes a taxi driver in order to cope with chronic insomnia, driving passengers every night around the boroughs of New York City. He also spends time in seedy porn theaters and keeps a diary. Travis becomes infatuated with Betsy (Cybill Shepherd), a campaign volunteer for Senator Charles Palantine (Leonard Harris), who is running for President. After watching her through her office window, interacting with fellow worker Tom (Albert Brooks), Travis enters to volunteer as a pretext to talk to her and takes her out for coffee. On a later date he takes her to see a sex film, which offends her, so she goes home alone. His attempts at reconciliation by sending flowers are rebuffed so he berates her at the campaign office, before being kicked out by Tom."

Girovagando, nota l'appariscente bionda Betzy, impegnata nella campagna politica del senatore Palantine; l'avvicina e quasi la strappa al brillante Tom, sino a che non viene abbandonato dalla stessa dopo un'offensiva gaffe. Confidandosi inutilmente con il collega 'Mago', acquista diverse pistole e matura confusamente l'idea di uccidere Palatine, impresa che non porta a termine. Allora si mette sulle tracce di Iris, prostituta tredicenne, conosciuta un giorno in cui cercava di scappare dal suo protettore. Tornanado dalla ragazzina compie la strage della banda che le sta intorno. Uscito dall'ospedale Travis è un eroe; i colleghi lo guardano con rispetto; Iris ne ha seguito i consigli e anche Betzy lo avvicina spontanemante."@it
  • "Robert De Niro delivers one of his most unforgettable performances as Travis Bickle, a Vietnam veteran who drives a taxi during the night shift on the mean streets of New York City. Witnessing the violent life all around him, he decides to clean up the town his own way. Martin Scorsese's masterpiece Taxi Driver remains a quintessential movie of the 1970s."

  • "Martin Scorsese established his reputation as America's director of urban grit with this portrait of an isolated New York City cab driver obsessed with hand guns and pornography. The claustrophobic atmosphere of the script may stem from the fact that it was written while scriptwriter Paul Schrader was homeless and living in his car. The film begins as we follow Travis Bickle cruising the New York streets around Times Square when it was a haven for hookers and dope fiends and the city's murder rate was in the thousands. As Bickle becomes increasingly incensed by the filth and degradation he encounters during his nightly twelve hour shifts, he starts to prepare himself for the day of reckoning that he is convinced is just around the corner. The film's voiceover as read by Robert DeNiro, has become iconic in its description of an American city steeped in corruption and violence. "They're all animals anyway, all the animals come out at night, whores, skunk pussies, buggers, queens, fairies, dopers, junkies, sick, venal. Someday a real rain will come and wash all this scum off the streets.""@en
