We’re talkin’ to Scorsese’s “Taxi Driver” and discuss:

Story & Writing, character studies;
The Ending;
and other such stuff and things and stuff.

“I don’t think it was uncomfortable for me; I think it was uncomfortable for other people, but it wasn’t really for me. I had been an actress for a long time, I had done a lot of movies before I did ‘Taxi Driver.’ To me it was another role, and I understood the difference between making movies and actually being a person. So it wasn’t really impactful for me. I don’t think I was confused by the sexuality in the film.” – Jodie Foster
