@SageofTalos Yeah, and? He was there for the guy but sometimes we gotta humble ourselves and crawl over to him. The Lieutenant needed to get all that stuff off his chest and Jesus was letting him do that. This scene is actually pretty realistic from that aspect because I have personally experienced this.
Wow, Christ standing there looked pretty surreal. It actually scared me at first 0_0 But I don't get it. Who was that at the end? I guess I'll just have to watch the movie.
Never get tired of this great film. Wildly underrated. Went miles over stupid Leonard Maltin's head. The Catholic guilt is there,for sure,but there's a lot more going on. This is the American way,the American dream gone way off the rails,in the gutter. Powerful performance by Keitel,who should have several Oscars by now. He tries to save himself but far too late. It all goes to seed: the drugs,his gambling. The Mets sure can't save him. (I think the Dodgers actually won that playoff.)
@mike196212 Leonard Maltin has pretty shit taste in movies, didn't like Taxi Driver either! Anything that's remotely sad he just doesn't like, heck he thought that upbeat children's cartoon Cats Don't Dance was too depressing! Seriously!
@MrByronDunbar -The Killer he liked! My favorite film, but I can understand someone not liking it. Taxi Driver, however what the fuck? That's ridiculous.
in fact, the church scene was totally improvised, keitel wanted to make a truly repentance with god cause, as you know, he wad a drug addict and in the movie, he took real drugs . But he wanted to stop and make repentance to god so this scene is very powerful because of this too. He stop taking drugs forever after this movie so its a good ending finally ; )

It was an insult not to nominate Harvey Keitel for this film! I would like to see Deniro do some of the scenes that this film required... maybe Brando could have done them.
@boagieking harvey has always been one of my favorite actors of all time, its funny cause the way he does this oooooooooooooooooh is the same as reservoir dogs
All the debauchery and smut aside. Few films can penetrate the conscious as well as this movie did for me. A clear illustration of reality painted in the sickest detail.
@Soilwar Don't fret buddy, everybody who knows their films knows Keitel deserves many Oscars, you are not alone in your opinions. But what does the film industry reward actors for these days?
Haven't seen this in years. Powerful.
