Description

You talkin' to me? No, today we're talkin' to YOU and it's all about Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver! Moriah leads Stephan and Miles through the making of this film, from Paul Schrader's unfortunate inspirations to a run-and-gun style production shoot to the impact this film has made in many peoples' lives (particularly young men). We also discuss whether or not this film is responsible in promoting violence and the dangers of people idolizing Travis Bickle.
