Taxi Driver

Martin Scorsese's acclaimed, haunting and sometimes disturbing drama, with Robert De Niro unforgettable as the unhinged and alienated New York cabbie Travis Bickle. He seeks solace in doomed relationships with a political campaigner and a child prostitute (a remarkable performance from a young Jodie Foster) before being driven to commit a final act of insane violence. Also starring Cybill Shepherd, Harvey Keitel and Peter Boyle, while Scorsese himself makes a chilling cameo appearance. Unmissable stuff
