CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Travis (Robert De Niro) goes on a shooting rampage throughout the motel as a terrified Iris (Jodie Foster) listens on in another room.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
"All the animals come out at night" -- and one of them is a cabby about to snap. In Martin Scorsese's classic 1970s drama, insomniac ex-Marine Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro) works the nightshift, driving his cab throughout decaying mid-'70s New York City, wishing for a "real rain" to wash the "scum" off the neon-lit streets. Chronically alone, Travis cannot connect with anyone, not even with such other cabbies as blowhard Wizard (Peter Boyle). He becomes infatuated with vapid blonde presidential campaign worker Betsy (Cybill Shepherd), who agrees to a date and then spurns Travis when he cluelessly takes her to a porno movie. After an encounter with a malevolent fare (played by Scorsese), the increasingly paranoid Travis begins to condition (and arm) himself for his imagined destiny, a mission that mutates from assassinating Betsy's candidate, Charles Palatine (Leonard Harris), to violently "saving" teen hooker Iris (Jodie Foster) from her pimp, Sport (Harvey Keitel). Travis' bloodbath turns him into a media hero; but has it truly calmed his mind? Written by Paul Schrader, Taxi Driver is an homage to and reworking of cinematic influences, a study of individual psychosis, and an acute diagnosis of the latently violent, media-fixated Vietnam era. Scorsese and Schrader structure Travis' mission to save Iris as a film noir version of John Ford's late Western The Searchers (1956), aligning Travis with a mythology of American heroism while exposing that myth's obsessively violent underpinnings. Yet Travis' military record and assassination attempt, as well as Palatine's political platitudes, also ground Taxi Driver in its historical moment of American in the 1970s. Employing such techniques as Godardian jump cuts and ellipses, expressive camera moves and angles, and garish colors, all punctuated by Bernard Herrmann's eerie final score (finished the day he died), Scorsese presents a Manhattan skewed through Travis' point-of-view, where De Niro's now-famous "You talkin' to me" improv becomes one more sign of Travis' madness. Shot during a New York summer heat wave and garbage strike, Taxi Driver got into trouble with the MPAA for its violence. Scorsese desaturated the color in the final shoot-out and got an R, and Taxi Driver surprised its unenthusiastic studio by becoming a box-office hit. Released in the Bicentennial year, after Vietnam, Watergate, and attention-getting attempts on President Ford's life, Taxi Driver's intense portrait of a man and a society unhinged spoke resonantly to the mid-'70s audience -- too resonantly in the case of attempted Reagan assassin and Foster fan John W. Hinckley. Taxi Driver went on to win the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, but it lost the Best Picture Oscar to the more comforting Rocky. Anchored by De Niro's disturbing embodiment of "God's lonely man," Taxi Driver remains a striking milestone of both Scorsese's career and 1970s Hollywood.

when he shoots the guys hand off he realizes the power of the .44 magnum
its a wax hand filled with small explosives and the actor is holding his own hand in a fist concealed down his sleeve, but the effect is convincing all the same but I wonder given the description earlier in the movie of what a 44 magnum is capable of Im surprised it didn't blow his whole arm off let alone a few fingers!! ;-)
Also the fact he was shooting one-handed probably jarred him a little.
Watch Ryder I was referencing how he hears a guy asking him what he thinks happens to a girl's face and her private area if she was shot by one.
I've never pulled on a 357.
I love Ted Nugent.
he was in vietnam si he realise that shit before
When he sits down on the steps, hes thinking hes about to be arrested, then it dawns on him how easy this is, and continues killing scumbags.
Well there are cereal killers who only go after pedophiles. Of course the police have to do something after 20 kills go by.
@@MrTredBear Cereal huh?
@@MrTredBear Cereals gotta watch out from the cereal killer these days
@@Malassaf97 Haha, I just realized my mistake.
The one killing those scumbags is equally a scumbag.
having no soundtrack or music in this scene makes it even more intense lol
yeah over dramatic soundtrack always ruins the movie
No need of typing that lol. Dont bring down the intensity
Music ruins movies
The entire film needed no soundtrack. That's its only flaw.
It truly makes the second half of the film a lot more bizarre. Watching this late at night, really puts the atmosphere in a light.
rumor has it that Iris was so traumatized by this event, she eventually became an F.B.I. agent
sort of similar to Sport becoming a "cleaner" and changing his name to Victor only to be killed by a government assassin.
@Hagmire84 makes noise with tongue between teeth
AAAaaaaahhh! I see what'cha did there!
@@Razgar_Voxel I thought he changed his name to Tommy Wiseau and made a really bad movie
@@zxbryc The actor that played Iris also played Clarice from silence of the lambs
I love how you see Travis swapping hands to fire his guns.
During the Vietnam war, one of the first things they taught soldiers was how to competently fire pistols with both hands so that if you injured one arm you wouldn’t be at a massive disadvantage.
They even solidify this point when we see Travis at the gun range. Shooting both eyes open.
Wow that’s smart
they didnt use pistols in Vietnam
Yeah, they did.
Not very often but almost every M-79 man (40mm grenade launcher) carried a 1911.
Source?
The Things They Carried, a book written by a Vietnam Vet.
@@brain8484 Too much call of dooty is bad for you, little Timmy....
I love the way he doesn't cleanly pull his gun out, it gets caught inside his coat. Great little detail.
Another nice detail is how the pimp's hand is shaking from stress when he shoots Travis at 2:00
Wonder if the gun getting briefly stuck was planned, or just happened while filming and was so good it got left in?
Reminds me of Dog Day Afternoon. Al Pacino’s character was carrying his rifle in a long box; when he’s about to take it out, it gets stuck and he struggles for a few seconds to get it out. Always cracks me up.
Marty is the king of awkward realism. Reminds me of Raging Bull when fat De Niro knocks over the martini with his belly. Those movies are so real they make you uncomfortable.
@@bh8365 whether or not it was intentional or by accident, they definitely decided to live that in for a reason. It's just one more reminder that Travis is awkard and psychotic
That cigarette throw at 0:25 is just one of the millions of reasons why this movie is a CLASSIC!
Also that weird broadside kick, like wtf is he gonna accomplish with that? He thinks Travis is a football?
Go back to your tribe.
@@Rasbiff because he was scared.
Cigar, i think
Yup!
I love how the camera quickly pans away after the first gunshot, as Sport is crying out in pain, as if to show how little Travis thinks of murder by that time.
fountainhead It's not a pan. It's a cut away shot.
maxwell10206 No, it's a pan. The cut-away is him sitting then entering the brothel.
I don't understand how he didn't bleed out quickly from a shot to the stomach.
Spike Spiegel You usually die slow from a shot to the gut... Its agonizing torture; Reservoir Dogs where Mr Orange gets a gut shot is true to life. It's actually realistic. If it was the liver that's a different story. There are so many nerves there the only way you would be able to walk is if you're on some shit or have an immense pain tolerance.
@@commonman9732 it's funny how the same actor completely explains the answer to his question in another movie
Arguably the most realistic gun fight scene in a movie. The way everybody, including Travis, seemed sort of stunned that it's happening, the way the guy shoots Travis in the arm and sort of just waits to see if he'll drop, the guys hand getting blown in half. Absolutely amazing.
King Arthur yes getting shot in the neck, and continuing to walk around like it’s nothing, very ‘realistic’
@@whiterunguard4287 it was obviously just a graze. Travis also did months of training, including pain tolerance
Heat's bank shootout is another good one.
@@odg1190 yeah I've heard that actual operators use that one as an example of realism
@@richardsamuelgustavo not only that, but adrenaline is a hell of a drug
1:49 I love, love how Travis is moving up the stairs while staring the guy down while holding a gun. It's just a cool shot! Love it.
I think he was showing just how scared he really was.
1:49 I Kill You! I Kill You! I Kill You! I Kill You! I Kill You!
Watchout!
@@kissme1518 His face did not look like he was scared tho. More like he felt on top!
@@kissme1518 i think it was a more hesitant thing
@@imhim3717 I think that's good acting and good part of the script because tired of these "badass" characters that are perfect in every way. He shows he's scared of what he's doing and is not fully in control of his emotions. There's some realism into it.
One of the best shoot outs ever. Still remember my reaction when the guys hand just blew off. Jaw dropped.
+Austin Putnam Ever see the documentary about the making of this movie? Awesome shot of the guy smoking a cigarette, holding it with the blown up hand.
Yeah I was surprised they showed that in a late 70s film like my god. I wish I could relive that surprise often!
pretty positive it influenced John Woo
Nope
44 magnum 😎
Excellent and very violent scene...straight, dirty, crisp and realistic.
When people get shot they often remain shocked, paralized like, they almost don't believe what just happened.
This is a lot more realistic than most current gunfight scenes that are just a little better than the average Western movie with people jumping backwards or shouting "aaaaaaarrghhhh" while slowly and theatrically falling to the ground.
While not necessarily realistic in most circumstances (as my understanding is generally whoever draws first wins a gunfight), I've developed an appreciation for shootouts where both the good guy and the bad guy are able to get shots off (even if it's just one per person ;), and it seems to me older movies are better about this than new ones (especially R-rated ones). I'd be interested in seeing more shootouts like that, if anyone wants to link me.
Sandro Bindelli what I love is how there's 0 music to this scene as well as no exaggerate shaky cam direction or exaggerate punch and object breaking scenes. Sometimes, less IS more. And the key to an intense and focused scene (let alone a climax) is silence. Let the viewers watch the moment. And that's what Taxi Driver delivers 100%.
That where you are wrong Unforgiven is totally unrealistic where you have Munny going in to a bar having a shootout with ten guys and none of them can shoot straight. In real life at least one person would have mortally wounded Clint more like 3 or 4 though. Also No country is bullshit too (read Ken Levine's excellent blog NO COUNTRY FOR REAL LOGIC and i quote " Brolin fires a shotgun with double aught buck at Javier who is six feet away from him behind a door and doesn't kill him.nor does he blow up his compressed air tank he wears on his back. What planet are we on where the laws of physics work in suc mysterious ways. But coming back to this film. If Travis who is an ex-marine how come he doesn't shoot the pimp properly only blows his fingers off a real marine would have shot him dead especially with a Magnum pistol.
Travis couldn't have been much cop as a marine. A real marine would have shot them with ease not the clumsy way travis did it.
@@zakalon123 Marines weren't using .44 magnums in 'Nam. More like 1911s. Also NCFOM shotgun: That's not a bad point, but it depends on what choke the shotgun had on it.

Godfather 2, goodfellas, taxi driver, heat and ect Robert de Niro has done it all.

The mohawk that Travis shaves his head in is a reference to the Vietnam War, in which people would shave their head into a mohawk whenever they embarked on a suicide mission
yeh kinda symbolize as warriors like how native americans use to rock them mohawks
@John Wallace not really the vikings wore mohawks pretty extensively
yeah, that is bullshit.
One of these guys in mohawks are shown at the ending of Platoon after the last bloody battle.

It’s beautiful

@From the Shadows Emerges... dont see why it wouldn't be real. Not like it was bare skin and the worst than can happen is a slight burn
Gritty 70's New York. Too violent for Hollywood at the time.
It's totally Hollywood. People don't even know what "Hollywood" means anymore.
Too violent for Hollywood now
I was born in Brooklyn in 77. Growing up in the 80’s and 90’s I seen a lot of violence and crime. The mafia was out of control, drugs were everywhere. I got into more fights than I can remember. The blacks moved into my neighborhood and cut my friends neck with a box cutter. He caught the guy a few blocks away after going to our other friends house and got a police baton and beat the black dudes head in with it till his skull looked more like the shape of an egg. Yeah it was pretty wild back in those days
Francis Albert you sound dumb af. 🤦🏼♂️
Dumb. You dont know how grotesque theaters were at that time
70s movies were the best!! i love the dramatic silence on shooting scenes of that era.
yes
90s
@Gōdon Gurando same but this is still really good
I love the sound of him walking across the pavement, though.
Yup...Taxi Driver and Rocky came out the same year too.
2:07 Love the way he blinked rapidly at each shot instead of having deadset eyes of some Hollywood fantasy of a gunman.
Just noticed how the 3rd gangster who shot Travis in the arm wasn't planning to kill him, you can see him lower the gun when Travis collapses.
Worst part of that scene: the tragedy of his polyester suit
Why?
I like how the guy gets the drop on him and just shoots him in the arm lmao
Didn't know he had the .25 on a sprung curtain rail in his sleeve.
he wasn't a killer at heart. in the heat of the moment his humanity or fear of being a killer prevailed and he went for a limbshot rather than chest or headshot.
Lol at 2:00 idk why but the way he just causally walks on Travis looks funny as hell
@@plasmaastronaut guy is clearly a mobster. He's probably killed before. Who knows
@@isaacster5027 nah, you can see his hand shaking right before he pulls the trigger lmao
Sport looks like Tommy Wiseau.
No I did not hit it's bullshit I did not hit her I did not oh hi mark
Ryan Avery Anyway, how's your sex life?
+JamesBond2608 I can not tell you it's confidential
No I don't know nobody named Greg.
If they ever remake this movie (which God forbid), I could see Tommy Wiseau playing Sport.
I just realized that early in the movie there is a scene where Betsy tells her co worker to light a match with only his pinky and thumb, in this scene Travis shoots the bouncer's hand off and his pinky and thumb are the only fingers that remain.
He lost his pinky too, I'm afraid.
Oh!!! that was great foreshadowing
0:48 He sits down for a while after shooting him. This parts is very realistic in some point of view.
Based on..?
He gathers his senses for a moment
One of my favorite movie scenes of all time. So insanely realistic, the way he shoots, how it impacts them, their reactions, so real. Scorcesse did an excellent job on this film, this scene especially.
Its great but its not realistic in any way wtf
@@thunderbrotherschinaeditio656man shut up
@@thunderbrotherschinaeditio656 is too. I mean not that i'd know...
Bit seriously cod and tarkov arent realistic, this is. Stop basing your ideas on games and hollywood and go watch real shooting footage.
That gutshot is so raw.
But it doesnt flow so well. You can see him waiting for the shot.
A streetwise pimp would instinctively know that Travis was packing heat. A guy who stands toe to toe like that and who shows no fear is either armed, batshit crazy or both.
@@wargamer7770 But its portrayal is realistic af
@@ingleringlet-snipps3rd449 I'm no pimp but I've been around enough to know anybody getting in my face like that after I told them to piss off is either high or heated. You're absolutely right.

LOL Keitel is such a great actor "na I doe no nobody named iris"
Jasper Aquino Harvey keitel?
Yep. He plays Tommy Wiseau in this movie.
Pointblankmos underrated comment
He's terrific in just about all that he has ever done, especially playing The Wolf in "Pulp Fiction" and Mr. White in "Reservoir Dogs."
I agree ,I also saw him in a little known film from 1978 called Blue Collar with Yaphet Kotto and Richard Pryor
I love how you see small moments which makes these scenes so realistic. Such as f.ex: When Travis' character pulls out the 1st gun, he stumbles with it and can't get it out of his pocket (contrast with his bravado in front of the mirror), And he just walks away without checking if the guy is dead. It makes the shot more brutal imo
Wtf this is not realistic even though its great
I love how in the 70s, they knew how to do gore right. There was just enough and it was placed and down in such a way that it had VOLUMES more impact than the gratuitous gore that’s everywhere all the time in movies these days.
I like the way Sport drew out the 's' when he said 'Iris'.
Irisss.
Louissss
It absolutely blows my mind that this movie was made 40 years ago... and it will be 41 years old on February 8th! And this movie contained one of the best and most graphically realistic shootouts that still holds up today. And for people who were born much later or haven't seen this film, you have take something into consideration. If you showed a person used to only modern movies this scene, they would probably laugh and say the sound effects were kind of corny and they have seen much worse in terms of violence. But this was 41 years ago... Audiences at that time had never seen a shootout this realistic and bloody! If I could transport you back in time to when this movie came out and wipe all your knowledge of movies, your mouth would be hanging open in disbelief from this scene. With movies like this, you have to take the release date into context with the quality of the film because in 1976, this type of graphic and realistic shootout was unheard of! The moment where the guy gets his fingers blown off by the .44 was probably the most gory and violent thing anyone had seen at that point. We have all sorts of movies like 300, Saw, Hostel, any Quentin Tarantino movie, etc that have desensitized us to this. Audiences at that time must have been absolutely horrified by this shootout!
tankmaster1018 i find it extremely bloody even by today's standards. Granted it's not at Quentin Tarantino levels but still very bloody
Tarantinos movies are cartoonish, corny and trying hard to be akin to a snuff-flick or something.
Victor M Tarantino is one of my favorite directors, but I just rewatched Taxi Driver last night for the first time in a while, and I forgot how violent this scene really is...it's on a different level than anything Tarantino has done. I thought the violence in Django and The Hateful Eight was pretty lame. It's over the top and cartoony like this dude said...which wasn't the case with other Tarantino films. He's trying too hard these days. The Hateful Eight is basically the basement scene from Inglorious Basterds stretched into a 3 hour movie, and it just doesn't work.
This is true.
I saw it back then and I left the theater shaking. It was almost like being in shock.
Such a heartwarming scene.
Kinda gets you in a zen state. Watching these perverts get their just desserts.
The acting here is incredible. The dialogue may seem stilted and awkward but that only makes it more realistic, as of course thats how people act in real life. Also, the fact that the man whose hand was blown off just stood there staring at Travis shooting the pimp, in complete shock of whats happened is absolutely true to reality. He was stunned and was in disbelief of what had happened, and only another gunshot snapped him out of it. This scene is an example of exact realism.
0:31 "Ooh, ooh, oh, oh, du, D'oh ... oh ... oh ...!" Lol
He sounded like Curly from Three Stooges
Holy moly you're right. He does do a clumsy doh at the end.
@Travis Bickle - Uuaaaa lala !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He' coming. Or going, maybe.
Cutting off the scene prematurely, in classic Movieclips style
Y'got a gun?

Oh oohoooohhhhhh
Get ohuta heeehhh!!
I find it fascinating that before Travis killed the old man (Iris timekeeper) she yelled don't kill him. These were the closest people she had to parental figures. The old man was probably nurturing to her in some way in the off hours. But in reality the men in Iris's world were all pedophiles. But a 12 year old isn't going to understand that. Travis did and he stuck his neck out for her...and it got shot.
It’s probably Stockholm syndrome
@@sandvich3943 I think you're right.

De Niro not only has incredible talent and dedication, but knew how to choose his movies well. Incredible lifelong resume of groundbreaking movies and performances.
Little Fockers is a national treasure.
I love how realistic this shooting scene is. The protagonist gets hurt, there is no plan or strategy, it takes more than one bullet to kill the bad guys, the girl isn’t grateful, and so on. Hollywood, take notes.... if that’s even possible.

Ppl shouldnt even complain about it. It makes everything seem more realistic.
Comparing that shallow, crass, artless, POS product "Joker" to Taxi Driver is simply laughable. Also, except for this scene there is really only one other scene of violence in the film, where Travis shoots an armed robber in a Bodega. Scorsese tore this film from his soul, along with writer Pals Schrader, though the finished film differs greatly from the script.
@David Curious, just what is the "message" of "Joker", that a shallow, poorly written, infantile product by a hack Director that tries to pose as "meaningful" can fool millions ?
@2:05 some of the best effects I've ever seen
The cheek ripples...
The Ram right
IKR. Tried to figure out how they do it. I think they used strings connected to bags full of blood so when they pull them fast it looks like they get shot. You can tell in the neck shot but still, they did a damn good job there.
And years before CGI.
Blows hand off-painless.
Shoots shoulder- writhing pain
It was meant to be realistic. Often, people would go into a state of disbelief and shock. Literally becoming paralyzed of such all before the pain kicks in
Incredibly stupid comment #1!! Woohoo you win the prize! How's it feel?
@dcosb09 you're positive?
@dcosb09 I see.
It's called shock.
This movie was life changing for me.
When I saw this scene at 1:07 although gruesome and violent it really seemed to open a world of possibility with movies and I figured out you can still tell a gripping story with such effects.
I think it was then I knew I truly loved movies as an art. This movie is a masterpiece
Hehe..."gripping..."
It's impossible to explain to younger Generations how cutting-edge this movie was ...
are you sure? I'm a younger generation who saw it for the first time last night and it still feels fresh, even though it's closing in on 50 years.

You can still feel its influence to this day. Take Joker for example. Has Taxi Driver written all over it.

what makes this movie so good is that the travis we see here is vastly different than the one in the beginning.
I love how disoriented he looks after shooting sport in the stomach, he walks away and sits down on the stairs staring blankly, he's so confused even at that moment past the Rubicon, he knows what to do but he has no idea how he's doing it, he's detached even then.
"All my life needed was a sense of someplace to go." -Travis Bickle
Jesus but the "Tribe " part cracks me up every time considering their get- ups. :D
I loved how his sleeve gun worked.
This is one of the most accurate Gunfights I have ever seen in a movie. It’s dirty, brutal, hectic, and not so quick over as Hollywood so often portrayed. It is not seldom, that a gunman gets hit several times, ends the fight, walks away and die in the car or when he leaves the car and walks or later in bed.
The sound of the .44 with the exploding hand is the most accurate sound of a .44 Ive heard on film. Everything else in virtually every movie by comparison has sounded like a 9mm or .38
And indoors in a confined space it's deafening.
1:06 hey high five
2:05 Nothing up my sleeve... Presto!
0:22
It's kinda funny how he just asks "You gotta gun?"
On my first viewing of this movie I thought it was sort of a love story as nothing too shocking happened, but not expecting an action scene like this as there was no ominous music sort of leading up to this moment, I really didn't expect him to go Punisher mode, and the lack of music and De Niro's conflicting facial expressions made me feel petrified, because it made it feel so real.
1:26 Resident Evil shot
The why he turned and walked it looked like the PS1 tank controls.
I still can't fathom how much Robert de Niro looks like the lead singer of Tool after he cuts his hair
Svinja you mean how much the lead singer of tool looks like De Niro with the haircut
I wonder if Maynard got the idea from this character?
De Niro was a handsome man back in the day. When he cuts his hair that hairstyle was amazing.
He looks too much like maynard
He looks like 90s Les Claypool
Legend of a film. Watch it for yourself, and tell me how you would even start this review. Seriously an iconic movie, with a top-tier cast, soundtrack, and storyline. Saw this in the summer, and damn what a highlight. It's worth watching. And this will always remain legendary, just like Robert De Niro. So much action, emotion, and darkness. An extremely underrated film, that does not get its credit in modern times. 8.20.2020
I think is not underrated, it's quite remembered by film critics, and everybody knows the "you talking to me" phrase
The rest of the shootout gets better
What about when he stabs the bloke through the hand?
beeney2 That always got me too. Fantastic filmwork and props for the time.
Wow. Amazing. Perhaps his best film.
Horoscopes for that day:
"Turmoil at your workplace will make it impossible to get anything done."
"You may have a bad day today, something in your gut will tell you."
"A problem will come up, and you might find yourself needing a hand."
"You think you have a situation under control, but someone may have a trick up their sleeve."
"Bring that knife anyway, you just never know."
This movie is the epitome of great cinema.
2:00 I love how the man at the top of the stairs has Travis at point blank range and thinks "eh, a shot in the arm outta do it."
Could have been afraid to kill and/or didn't expect Travis to have another gun up his sleeve, but yeah, I was surprised when I first saw that.
Made 0 sense
Even though he's a pedo and a pimp, he was acting in self defense, so it wasn't necessary to kill. He maimed his arm and he dropped the gun. Killing someone is a lot of headache even if your acting in self defense
Travis had a gun with that little contraption inside his coat sleeve, which took the old guy by surprise
1:49 I kill you! I kill you! I kill you! I kill you!
He's a pharmacist; he's used to giving shots in the arm 💉
The most realistic and perfect shootout scene ever filmed.
Nobody dares to try the usual pathetic remake of this masterpiece Taxi Driver.
the closest ive seen is Joker, but yea still doesnt compare
It’s disturbing how realistic it is
@@InstazomeASMR Joker is a crap movie, completely copied from Taxi Driver
0:51 just waiting for uber
Perfect film, perfect acting.
Those reviews keep saying how Joker make people violence
They apparently did not watch Taxi Driver🤷🏻♂️
Almost got a president killed
And Reagan lol
@@nightman4142 bullshit that was all Jody fosters fault
0:29 the most badass scene in movie history
More like 1:04
Travis easily puts Rambo to shame. He doesn't need a rifle or machine gun, just a low caliber pocket pistol and he can make it work
That shot of Travis backing up the stairs is terrifying. When he turns to the side and you see him for what he is - a wiry, small man with a coat two sizes too big and a stunned look in his eye. Then, you see what he’s become in the moment. He moves robotically, a killing machine blinded by hatred and a need for vengeance. The grim reaper, who looks deathly himself.
Yeah, this scene is so damn good. It always gives me chills. No music score, just the noise from movement.
My first hero, I saw this when I was 7 or 8 and the next day. I made myself a mohawk with cream and went to school like that.
My teacher came to our house that same day and complained. Greetings from Germany.
if joker just would had faced this murray there would had been nothing left of him
Sport's moans are so funny.
Hey, man, that shit hurt, LOL
dkelly26666
Besides all that shit going to start coming out of him he shot him in the intestinal tract
Sounds like someone who got the wind knocked out of them
I love the part when he says "You got a Gun?" it's just so funny and beautiful
1:57 I love this cinematographic resource used in films like reservoir dogs, saw...
Scorcese and Deniro=movie magic!This movie was a game changer in the 70s.
One of the greatest shootout scenes in film history
Travis Bickle is the prime example of a 70s movie legend👍👍👍
1:16 "Go ahead. Make my day."
I barely realized that Pantera used that phrase “suck on this on one of their songs… neat”
That song was a Poison Idea cover (their version also had that sample too). White Zombie also used that sample in their version of "God Of Thunder" by Kiss
@@gavin6666 Yeah I know, but Posion Idea didn't came to my head. I apologize.
@@ReyeS000Il it's alright
This is a really great movie. I was thrilled to see it 33 years ago in a movie theater.
This movie is so relatable. Easily one of my favorite characters. One of the all time great films as well. Thank you Mr. De Niro and Scorsese
Re-…… relatable???????
@@julieman13 im sure he means the situation of travis as a lonely young man trying to find meaning in the world, as well as his disgust towards a corrupt society
not the psychotic thoughts and murdering
I know what you mean. I remember one time I tried to assassinate a building full of pimps. It's not as easy as it looks.
Pimps is one of the lowest form of life
This should be remanded to “Travis Goes Pimp Hunting.”
almost forgot to watch this today. always be prepared
I like how nobody was on their smart phones.
Those did not existed yet
The intensity of this scene... it was unbearable...
Ahhhhh NYC in the late 70s...what a magical place.
I've watched tons of movies before but this shootout scene feels really heavy, it makes us (audience) feel like we were actually spectating them inside the dark claustrophobic walls
"Go back to your tribe" xD
One of the best movie, and one of the most iconic scenes in the movie
Best movies of de Niro, in my opinion
1.-Once Upon A Time In America
2.-The Godfather 2
3.-Taxi Driver
4.-Raging Bull
5.-Goodfellas
6.-Casino
7.-The Untouchables
8.-Mean Streets
9.-Cape Fear
10.-Heat
(I have not looked The Deer Hunter)
Have you watched American psycho if not i'd recommend
You've got to watch "Deer Hunter"; it's so raw and tragic
