Taxi Driver - A Gritty Tale of Urban Alienation

In the cult classic film Taxi Driver, director Martin Scorsese brings to life a haunting portrayal of urban decay and isolation. Released in 1976, the movie follows the journey of Travis Bickle, a mentally unstable Vietnam War veteran and a night-time taxi driver in the gritty streets of New York City.

As Travis navigates the city's dark underbelly, his exposure to the perceived decadence and sleaze of the urban landscape triggers a downward spiral into his own inner turmoil. The film masterfully delves into the themes of alienation, violence, and the consequences of societal neglect.
