Nightmares Behind the Wheel: Taxi Driver Chronicles

Taxi Driver - A Cult Classic

Taxi Driver, directed by Martin Scorsese and released in 1976, is a gritty and dark film that has achieved cult status over the years. Set in the bustling streets of New York City, the movie delves into the disturbed psyche of Travis Bickle, a mentally unstable Vietnam War veteran who works as a night-time taxi driver.

Bickle's job exposes him to the gnarly underbelly of the city, a world that is riddled with decadence and sleaze. As he navigates through the streets, the desolation and moral decay around him stimulate his desire for violent action. Haunted by his experiences in the war and unable to connect with society, Bickle becomes increasingly deranged, ultimately leading to a dramatic and explosive climax.
