In addition there was outcry at a 13-year-old schoolgirl actress (Jodie Foster) co-starring as a prostitute.
It won Best Picture at the 1976 Cannes Film Festival and received Academy Award nominations for Best Film, Best Actor (Robert De Niro) and Best Supporting Actress (Jodie Foster). Considered to be one of the most powerful films in motion picture history, 'Taxi Driver' is a film which is '...a savage piece of work - and hellishly brilliant' (Evening News '76).

Taxi Driver is an important film of the 70's and above else is one of the best films of all-time for sure. The whole story to this magnificent movie is simply great. Even though it basically tells about a taxi cab driver the whole time and him just driving around and picking up scums. Robert DeNiro who the main character in this movie is also the narrator and it's just simply amazing how he tells about the bad people on the streets and how this city needs to be cleaned up. Put this on your movie list now!
All Hail Robert De Niro

where do i start, this film is one of the most bold well acted, not just by robert de niro but jodie foster too who plays a thirteen year old prostitute. de niro is my favourite actor and it is his best performance along with raging bull. you should see this movie before you die i admit it is kinda slow in some parts but thats the beauty of it. martin scorsese is a genius, and does a bit of acting in this film too and to my suprise was exellect even though it was a very small scence. it just shows how well scorcese and de niro worked together and what a great partnership they had!! conclusion. BUY THIS FILM!!!
