Taxi Driver (1976)
MUST WATCH A cinematic masterpiece it's fair to say, i love every minute of this dark, brooding film. The soundtrack, script and visuals work together to create such an atmosphere that makes it unique, mystical and incredible. The acting is realistic and excellent, everyone in it is really really good from bit players to stars. I like dark things and this is one of my faves, it shows a lot of bad things in the world that we consider everyday but is not depressing just honest. It shows that loneliness can drive you mad, Travis Bickle is not the bad guy that he is often presumed to be, in his mind he wants connection but doesn't know how to and to save people who haven't asked for help. I understand it's not for everyone but i bloody love it.
Like This Watch These: Mean Streets (1973) An earlier pairing of the dream team, Nightcrawler (2014) The atmosphere here is reminiscent of this classic, Raging Bull (1980) Does film get better than this, not very often.
