| Scarce lobby card set from the original 1976 release of Taxi Driver. This was director Martin Scorsese's landmark film from the 70's. Robert DeNiro was nominated for best actor. He appeared in nearly every scene; as the streets of New York are seen through his eyes. Jodie Foster was nominated for best supporting actress. The performance by the 13 year old Jodie was brilliant and broke her out of the sweet and innocent roles. The film is a character study of a Vietnam vet, played by Robert DeNiro. He's an insomniac who occupies his nights by driving a New York taxi. Much of his time is spent in porno theaters and the seedy parts of the city. He's disgusted by the sleeze around him and he takes on a personal crusade to save a hooker, played by the very young, Jodie Foster. In his twisted mind, he believes a bloody killing spree would fix the world. Amongst all this insanity, De Niro gets a crush on gorgeous Cybill Shepherd. | ||
