@stbhs71 please don't underestimate the role of Paul Schrader and his remarkable script. De Niro's method acting is also exceptional.

"despicable" character and Travis Bickle. What is he smoking ?

Just watched Part 2 - turns out the "actress" was a real-life prostitute.
-
What is the name of that actress alongside Jodie Foster at 0:57, the one's who's Iris's friend in the film?
-
I saw this as a kid, and later a few times as an adult. Then I saw it after driving a cab for 8 years, and definitely had a new perspective on it!
-
Man except maybe Daniel Day Lewis, there is No actor that works as hard at his craft as Robert Deniro. I don't care what they say, it has to bug them that Marlon Brando could just do it.
-
Shepherd wrote in her autobiography that while working on Taxi Driver, she turned down Deniro for a date , and he never spoke to her, except in character, for the rest of the filming.

@stbhs71 Don't speak on behalf of me.
A classic tale of isolation.
We are all Travis Bickle to a degree
Thanks Marty

she is arrogant. If you watch the whole thing you will see where Cybil tries to compare her acting and preparation style to De Niro's trying to make herself seem so great and then immediately following that statement, Jodie Foster goes "well I wish I could tell you I was well researched as Robert De Niro was.." shows just the difference between the two ladies attitudes. And the funny thing is Jodie Foster is 10 times more talented than Cybil yet she's so much more humble.
