Reel Chat Film Discussion: Taxi Driver

Rated R  | 112 min | 1976

Martin Scorsese’s iconic 1976 film about a mentally unstable Vietnam veteran who makes his living as a cabbie in New York, attempts to date a campaign worker, and befriends an underage sex worker whom he tries to get out of the profession. Nominated for 4 Oscars and starring Robert De Niro, Cybill Shepherd and Jodie Foster. 

This session of Reel Chat will be joined by guest speaker Baron Misuraca of CINEMA CLASSIC, a highly unique film screening and discussion program featuring an entertaining film history presentation and a very lively audience conversation.
