Throwback Thursday Movie: Taxi Driver

This week’s Throwback Thursday Movie Taxi Driver (1976).

If you haven’t seen this movie, it is worthy of your time. Taxi Driver is a fantastic movie, that was -unbelievably- only nominated for four Oscars and won zero.

Starring Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Cybill Shepherd, Harvey Keitel, and Peter Boyle.

Here is the conversation that Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) has with himself while talking to the mirror…

You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? You talkin’ to me? Then who the hell else are you talking… you talking to me? Well I’m the only one here. Who the f- do you think you’re talking to? Oh yeah? OK.
