Why everybody thinks “Taxi Driver” is a great movie?
It was very confrontational in its day, and also opened up discussion about issues people didn’t talk about back then. Over the years the writing, acting, directing and production values have stood the test of time as good quality, and there is always an ongoing fascination in stories of alienation and obsession, the darker side of life. For lovers of film ‘magic’, imagine how difficult some of those scenes must have been to make, and also consider whether you think the characters are arealistic in how they are portrayed. The movie also delivered some very powerful ‘messages’ in terms of unwrapping symbols and themes in the society of the time.
