I saw a photo of De Niro and Foster posing together at some event a few years ago. It felt weird looking at it because of the relationship between their characters in THIS film
I remember I was once told that I looked like Jodie Foster in Taxi Driver. I had no idea what she looked like because I had no idea what the movie was about. I'm still confused. Did they think I looked like a hooker? Or...
@97bruin Yeah that's why Jodie Fosters career has spanned so long, because she wasn't afraid to try different things, like lot of her childhood roles like Freaky Friday, Candleshoe etc, she was playing the typical tomboy, but here you see totally different side to her acting ability and for girl of only 12-13 at the time she really held her own.
The saddest thing about this film, of course, is that Travis has the potential to be a very good man... he just can't see any way out for himself. Damn, I love Scorcese.
Under the California Labor Board accordances Jodie had to go under psychological testing to make sure that she would not be emotionally scarred from her role as Iris.
she was 14 in this movie cuz she was born in 1962...look it up. but anyways amazing movie, jodie foster is a goddess she has done some pretty freaky shit..but does it so well
she couldn't act dialogue this naturally like Foster could. Just watch the beginning of the Exorcist. She was only good as the puppet for the makeup and gimmicks.
Harvey K and Jodie were fantastic in that last scene. I'm sure even 80% of good actors would find having to say stuff like that to a 12 year old creepy and freeze up. And I'm sure 99% of 12 year old female actors would be so embarrassed doing this scene they wouldn't be able to hide it.
Just proof that these two are great. And De Niro, of course.
I didn`t see the whole movie, just some parts, but I like the way it doesn`t use the obvious black/white way to tell about things.
Like Iris`s pimp isn`t shown like a bully, on the contrary, the end of this clip shows how he uses her loneliness and need to be loved to manipulate her, while seeming gentle and caring...
A great conversation. Brings to mind the De Niro / Pacino "have to put you away" conversation from Heat. Conflict, but also respect and even friendship.
God...this is going to sound obvious but I never realized how creepy and wrong it is that she's a prostitute...she's so small and obviously still a child. The dancing part has always disturbed me, and the way she's clinging him while he's getting inside of her head is so haunting
I know! When I was fourteen, I thought this movie was the coolest thing. I even tried to dress like her (thankfully to no avail, since my parents are degenerates). Now I'm 21 and thinking, "This is so inappropriate." I guess we're squares.
Kissing a twelve year old is not illegal in and of itself---not sex. And the parents (and Jodie herself) consented to let her be in this role. Think about how many parents and family members would go to jail if kissing a child were illegal (also, it isn't a tongue kiss).
