The Making of Taxi Driver 3/7

[richy12377]

This doc is brilliant, ive always took for granted what goes on behind the scenes..seems like such a good vibe while making this, shepard was a ballache to watch tho, on a weird note, i named my 15 year old son travis, and he's dating a girl called betsy, i hope she doesnt turn out like sybil shepard,hes a good kid.

First of all Im going to say Im in my 20s so this movie was made before I was even taught of but I have to say this movie is a classic because it captures the god less city of New York in the late 70s when heroin,prostitutes,and gangs were running rampid No disco,no studio 54,just the ra emotions of a confused young man who has had enough with this world he lives in

[JOAMdude]

paul sounds like he has no idea what he is talking about

[themightycelestial]

For me,

Jodie Foster epitomizes the concept of a "beautiful intelligent woman".

[bosnia91]

what a stupid fucking law, acting is a COMMITMENT, it's not Wall-Mart or some other pointless crapjob. If i was directing, the kid in the movie better do a good fucking job, no slacking just because of age. If it doesn't fit, move the fuck on. No wonder why child actors suck ass, you can't even make the little fuckers do hard work.

like Paul couldnt came up with better idea of Betsy leaving Travis

[MultiBorovnica]

i dont get it , why would Travis take Betsy to watch adult movie , why he would fuck him self up on first fucking date.

I mean Betsy is hot and doing that is sucide.

Paul Schrader explanation socks.

[thepolodon21]

@MultiBorovnica Travis knew nothing about movies it was a routine for him and he wanted to rouse some type of feelings out of here because he felt she was lonely and sad like him so he felt they were in the same space but she was still a woman and that shit just wasn't flying with that fox

[jmajort]

@thepolodon21 an astute interpretration for a complex psychological moment- it's easy to recognize the irrationality of it, it's hard to empathize

[markstar777]

from 700 this is profound

[ozziemckenzie]

Paul Schrader ... is he talking or gibbering ? :P

[relaxingmusic101]

@ozziemckenzie I see what you mean, he is a funny guy. 7:00
