Taxi Driver backdrop

Taxi Driver 1976 Directed by Martin Scorsese

On every street in every city in this country, there's a nobody who dreams of being a somebody. He's a lonely forgotten man desperate to prove that he's alive.

A mentally unstable Vietnam War veteran works as a night-time taxi driver in New York City where the perceived decadence and sleaze feed his urge for violent action.
