[00:00:12] Speaker A: All right. Hey, everybody, how are you? And Georgia? I don't know if you can hear me. Georgia is here. She's having some technical difficulty. You know, it wouldn't be a late to the party show until we get this together. So let me see if George is here. But I don't know if she's having some technical difficulties. So we'll see if we can get her on. Let's see. But yeah, today's movie is taxi driver. And let's see if she wants me to put her on. But yeah, 1976 taxi driver starring Robert de Niro and Jody Foster. And let's see what we got going on here. We're going to have some fun in the moment. If we could get Georgia on and see because she's having some technical difficulties. Hey, Georgia, you're on Cam. Do you want to put yourself off Cam? You look lovely, by the way. [00:01:37] Speaker B: We chilling. We chill here. [00:01:40] Speaker A: So I don't know if you want to cam up or not. [00:01:44] Speaker B: No, I really don't. Okay. [00:01:45] Speaker A: Yeah, well, you look fine, girlfriend. But yeah, go ahead on after put you on stage first so you can control your camera. So are you okay? [00:01:56] Speaker B: I just am looking for my avatar once I get it. [00:02:00] Speaker A: Okay, no problem. There you go. All right, we got it. So, yes, guys, welcome to another. You know, it is a typical how Betty Davis saved my life. Life lessons from classic Hollywood. Because there's some Tom Foolery always going on. And yes, we are alive. Last time we tried to stream, we couldn't stream live. And so now we have to test and all this. So thank you for hanging in there with us. And we are ready to go with taxi driver 1970. Six's taxi driver because I found out that there is a 50s taxi driver. It's a foreign film. I'm not sure which country it's from, but yeah, so I didn't know there were two taxi drivers. But anyway, I'm Moya. [00:02:51] Speaker B: And I'm Georgia. [00:02:52] Speaker A: And Georgia, I cannot remember. Had you seen this movie before? [00:02:57] Speaker B: No, I hadn't. Oh, wow. [00:02:59] Speaker A: So you're a taxi driver virgin. Oh, my gosh. [00:03:02] Speaker B: What a way. [00:03:03] Speaker A: I am so sorry. I couldn't remember. I kind of suspected you weren't, but I couldn't remember. I am sorry for the punch in the face that is 1976 Scorsese taxi driver. Well, girl, let's get right into it because I didn't. Please tell me. I'm not even going to talk. Not that much. You know, I got to talk. Please tell me what you thought about. Well, let's set it up. What is taxi driver about? [00:03:29] Speaker B: Okay, it's about this ex marine who takes a job as a taxi driver because he has severe insomnia and he can't sleep. So he drives through New York City and he becomes very disturbed by the way that the city has deteriorated. I mean, it's filmed during the garbage strike that was going on in 1974. And so the garbage that you see was real. It was actually piled up like that. And so he sees all this crime, and he sees prostitution. He sees just all kinds of just really seedy life all around him. And it starts to really get to him. And he even tries to reach out to this woman. And because his social skills are so poor, well, you'll see what happens. But then he also sees this twelve year old prostitute who's played by an actual twelve year old Jody Foster, and he becomes interested in trying to help her. So this movie is very groundbreaking for a whole lot of reasons. And I had heard this movie mentioned so many times, I thought, you know, I really do need to see it because it's always mentioned in all these top groundbreaking movies. And at the time that Martin Scorsese directed it, he was only 33. And he went on to influence, if you see movies that are done by Spike Lee and Quentin Tarantino, you can see his influence in their movies. This also cemented Robert De Niro's reputation as one of Hollywood's greatest actors. And so when you look at the movie like I did, I realized when I watched it, because I've been to New York City since this movie was filmed. And the checkered cabs, the way Times Square looks, the neighborhoods as they were during the garbage strike, they no longer exist. So you're kind of looking at New York City at that particular point in time. And of course, this movie is very renowned because it inspired John Hinckley Jr. To attempt to assassinate then President Ronald Reagan because he wanted to impress Jodie Foster. And of course, he was found guilty by reason of insanity. [00:05:56] Speaker A: This movie. Wow. [00:05:59] Speaker B: So, yeah, it's very historically, and like, for the history of just filmmaking itself, it had a big impact on movies that were to follow because I think what it did was it started this whole new wave of vigilante films and anti hero films because, remember, Billy Jack and all these other movies came out after this one. And anyway, there's some interesting trivia to prepare for the role. Robert De Niro actually drove a cab for 12 hours a day, got his cabbie's license and did it for about a whole month. In preparing for the role of this movie and with Jody Foster, because people were really. There was a lot of controversy. They were really surprised about an actual twelve year old playing the role of a twelve year old prostitute. [00:06:50] Speaker A: Right. [00:06:50] Speaker B: And so the labor board were required for her to be monitored on the film set. And she also had sessions with a psychiatrist to prevent her from being emotionally harmed by her role. So they would test her. So that's how she is so really amazingly convincing in this role. I was shocked and surprised on a lot of levels. This whole movie does just give you a big old gut punch. It was supposed to have been rated x at one time because of the graphic violence, but the movie board decided that because he desaturated the violence in the movie. [00:07:30] Speaker A: He did? [00:07:32] Speaker B: Yes. [00:07:32] Speaker A: Believe it or not, desaturate it. [00:07:35] Speaker B: Well, what they did was the blood. Actually, what they did was they changed it to a little bit different color, and they made it less so. This is shocking. It's not as gory. This movie is very gory. It's very bloody, gory and violent. If you go in this movie and don't know what it's about, you have to be prepared, because it does end up being really violent. And the way it's shot, I mean, he does very close ups, slow, slow, slow painting of the camera and then from overhead. And the way he shoots it really capitalize in a way. I think he both mocks violence, but I think he also tries to exploit it at the same time. In my point of view, I think that's what Martin Scorsese is. So that's just my initial reaction to it. [00:08:40] Speaker A: Well, I mean, did you like it? [00:08:44] Speaker B: I'm going to have to give it a thumbs down. Okay. Because I think, moya, you and I can honestly look at these movies that are very famous and say, hey, I'm not afraid to say this was a let down. I didn't like it very much, but I really felt like I needed to see it. And in many ways, I'm glad that I did, because I think I understand movie making that occurred after that a whole lot better after having seen this movie. And the biggest thing to me, the best thing about this whole movie was I think Robert De Niro's acting was absolutely phenomenal. He puts on a braviera performance, and he is so convincing. And so in this role, he's just amazing in it. So I think that was the best part of the movie, was to see his acting. [00:09:34] Speaker A: Absolutely. Okay, now, George, you got to tell me, what didn't you like about it, because, like I said, this is, like, one of probably in people's easy, top ten, top 20 movies. So you got to tell me what happened. Why didn't it do it for you? [00:09:52] Speaker B: All right. Well, okay. For one thing, to me, I thought that there were some problems with the writing because there were some unanswered plot holes in it. I think the main thing he's trying to do is just to shock people. But I think he overly dramatized the violence. But then there was questions that I had, like, why does he target. And this is a spoiler, okay. Why does he go after the presidential candidate? Because the presidential candidate had been nice to him. And then I was thinking, like, in this day and age, wouldn't we have, after what Robert De Niro does at the, like, most people would have been arrested for murder, or at least like, there would have been a grand jury investigation or something in it. I thought, what? But it just, to me, the way the press, the media looks at what he did, and they decide just by themselves to brand him as some kind of, well, we don't want to give it away. [00:10:54] Speaker A: We don't want to give it away. We don't want to give it away. [00:10:56] Speaker B: Right. [00:10:56] Speaker A: Okay. All we can say, it did not end up traditionally how movies today and in the past ended up. Let's just put it like that. I don't want to give it away. I was shocking because people like you, you haven't seen it because, you know, you think everybody's seen it. But, yeah, so we realize some people have not seen it, but go ahead. I'm sorry. [00:11:23] Speaker B: Well, those are some of the reasons why I found fault with the movie. Okay. Back then, when they did this movie, they use some very racially insensitive terms. And I thought that when I was reading about the scripting and the casting of the movie, they originally wanted the pimp to be a black person. And I thought, well, I'm glad because that's just too much of a stereotype, and I'm glad to say, but I think one of the things that disturbed me the most was, and I'm not going to describe it very much, but just watch for a scene between the pimp and Jodie Foster's character named Iris. There's a scene there, and to me, that was disturbing, but it really tells you how a pimp or an older person is able to have, manipulate and control somebody who's younger. And that, to me, was kind of hard to watch. Okay. And I had to laugh at one point because of the place where the leading character, his name's Travis Bickle. What a name. Where he takes Sybil Shepard's character on their second date. [00:12:44] Speaker A: I was like, yeah, we're going to get into that. We're going to definitely get into that. That was so funny. That was one of the funniest things I ever seen. I laughed at it. I saw this movie either in my late teens or early twenty s, and I laughed so hard at that, I was almost convulsed. And that was hilarious. [00:13:03] Speaker B: I know that just really illustrates how socially inept he is. And he's not very articulate either. But there's parts of the movie where I kind of thought this wasn't maybe intended to be funny, but I thought it was funny and I was laughing at it, right. [00:13:20] Speaker A: It was so freaking. Okay, so I want you to finish telling me what else about the movie before we get into our analysis, analyses, if you will, about it, that you found off putting. [00:13:40] Speaker B: Okay. Well, another thing that I was thinking about is if people from other countries see this movie and they think that this is just regular life in New York City, I thought, know, I hate for people to think of, like, this is what our country is all about. I mean, this is, like, typical. And I thought it just really gave New York City a black eye. And I thought it also made you just kind of, like, wonder, are all veterans, are they ticking time bombs the way they portray them? [00:14:18] Speaker A: Wait a minute. Aren't you a. [00:14:21] Speaker B: Veteran? So, like, I'm going, what? Veterans? Like, just like, we're all, man, poor Georgia got triggered. [00:14:28] Speaker A: Oh, no. [00:14:30] Speaker B: Like, yeah, we're all about to be triggered, and we're all. Because some of the people I know who hate war the most are veterans, too. So I thought, is this kind of mischaracterizing veterans to make them think that they're just loose cannons and they're just about ready to go off at any time, and it just takes something to just push them over the edge. And I thought to me, yes, maybe he had a little bit of unresolved PTSD, but that's another thing in the plot where you don't really know that much about his background and you don't know what it was that happened to him before all this that made him like this. You really don't know. Even though his character is the most drawn out of all, I felt like I would have liked to have known a little bit more about him before he came to New York City. [00:15:19] Speaker A: Girl, you want to know more about that mind? Hell, no. That was enough. What they gave me. I want no more of that. No, ma'am. Pam, I'm good. No, ma'am. That's enough of that was way. You talk about TMI now. That was way. Oh, my gosh. That movie would have been 4 hours long in the mind of Travis Bicker. And by the way, guys, we're trying to talk around it because we don't want to spoil it. But please go on YouTube. There's a sales going to remember. I never remember. I'll go find it. But there's so many great YouTube channels that did in depth analyses of this movie and reviews. So go in. And one in particular, I think is it swerve. Swerve channel. I think that's it. I'm sorry. If I'm saying it correctly, he did something about the contradictions of Travis Bickle's character. So go and check them out. But there's a ton of them. But go ahead, George. I'm sorry. [00:16:22] Speaker B: Well, I mean, overall, I can see how people would have had such a strong reaction to this movie when it was first released, because you don't forget about it. It smacks you in the face. It's just very shocking. And I think there was such a combination that came together because you've got great acting with Robert De Niro. You've got Martin Scorsese, who also has a cameo appearance, and he plays a very distasteful character. And then writer Paul Schrader. [00:16:57] Speaker A: That character shit was hilarious. Well, go ahead. [00:16:59] Speaker B: Yeah, Paul Schrader, we did a movie. We did american jiggle that he also wrote. So he likes to write about these people who work at night. [00:17:09] Speaker A: Yeah. [00:17:12] Speaker B: Yes. So you have the three of them, they collided together. And then this was the love trial that they had. Taxi driver with the three of them together. [00:17:24] Speaker A: Violent love trial. I love it. [00:17:28] Speaker B: Yeah. [00:17:28] Speaker A: Of course, we have Sylvia Shepard here in her heyday, which she had done last picture. Know, all this was kind of around the same time. And Albert Brooks, I believe, a comedic actor, very good comedic actor. Great movies he was in. So I had a lot Peter Boyle, who played wizard. A lot of people who were famous before they got famous. I mean, a lot of people in here. I'm probably leaving some more people out, but. Yeah. [00:17:58] Speaker B: Well, Norman, if you're listening, Norman, I have to say, I don't think that that white knit dress that she was wearing, it didn't do a thing for her. And this is a woman who's like a model and everything. I went, oh, man. Who did her wardrobe? [00:18:14] Speaker A: Well, you don't think it was typical 70s, because I love the 70s aesthetic. So I kind of liked her wardrobe. I mean, it wasn't fantastic, but this was the look in the. Just didn't like that dress. Or you didn't like the 70s look or you didn't like it on her. [00:18:34] Speaker B: I just didn't like it on her. I just didn't like the way the dress, it didn't do anything for her. And I thought, no, even Sybil shepherd couldn't make that look good. [00:18:46] Speaker A: Let's see if I can find it. Because she had looked like the Diane von Furstenberg had, like, a wrap dress on. We just saw her with the scarf ensemble, like the suit and Aline flare skirt. I'll check and see if we can find Jody Foster, the polo twelve year old prostitute. She had on, I guess, typical street wear, if you will. Let's see. Okay. I found this red and white number that Sybil shepherd had on when Travis Bickle De Niro's character first approaches her. So I am so sorry you didn't like this movie. [00:19:31] Speaker B: I didn't, but that's okay. I don't feel like we have to like every movie that we review. Because wouldn't it be boring if we liked every single thing we did? [00:19:38] Speaker A: I guess so, yeah, that's true. [00:19:41] Speaker B: So I just wanted to be. I thought, yeah, let's just get into something like a little gritty. We're going to go dark today. But as a matter of fact, I like this top that she has on right here. [00:19:51] Speaker A: Yeah. I think this may have been a dress, but I'm thinking a dress. But you're right, it could be a top because I thought it was like a Diane von Furtenberg the rab dress. Because that got popular back then. So you like this one? [00:20:03] Speaker B: I do like it. [00:20:05] Speaker A: Okay. [00:20:06] Speaker B: Yeah. I think it's really cute. And I like it. I like the vibe. [00:20:13] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. It's so seventy s and I'll see if I can find something else. I like the pantsuit she had on at the end, the end of the movie. What did you think about the ending? Without giving it away, what did you think about the ending? [00:20:34] Speaker B: At one point I was thinking, was the whole movie just a build up to just so that they could showcase this very shocking ending, but then also the immediate aftermath of that? I was thinking, this feels so strange because you are elevating somebody to a status. And it just was shocking to me. I guess people can look at one event and have two completely different conclusions about it. Because I felt that some people would look at him as a terrible person. Other people look at him as a great person. And you can have one event and you could look at it two different ways. The way the media spins it has a lot of effect or a lot of influence on thought. You know, in today's world, that's kind of how I look at it, too. The media can really spin things to give you a whole different view the way they want to see it. So that's my conclusion now. [00:21:43] Speaker A: And Harvey Keitel, that's the other person I forgot, and we all know him. He did a lot of great movies, of course, became famous, more famous with pulp fiction. You mentioned Tarantino, the director of that earlier. But, yeah, there's Horvy Kitel Scorsese on the left, and of course, De Niro. So, yeah, I knew it was forgetting somebody who also became more famous later on. And all these guys, so they got to be, what, in their late seventy s, all these cats, and they had some nice physiques. It's hard to believe these people, this younger, they're old goats now. All of us got to go to old Goatland. But when I saw, like, look how young they were, especially De Niro, man, they're so old and decrepit. So it's just hard to picture them this age. Well, I'll let you finish your diatribe and then I'll tell you what I think. [00:22:43] Speaker B: Okay. I'm just looking at this, like Harvey Keitel and the wife beater shirt. [00:22:48] Speaker A: So he's a pimp. Like Georgia said, this is sport or Matthew, but this is Jody's pimp, Iris's pimp in the movie. Yeah. [00:22:57] Speaker B: And then the huggy bear pimp hat. Yes, I remember the. No, we never wore any natural fabrics. Everything was like polyester. [00:23:09] Speaker A: Everybody was funky, sweaty. Sweaty. I'm going to just leave it at sweaty bits, as the Brits like to say. You're sweaty bits. Yeah. Yuck. [00:23:23] Speaker B: But this movie was. I see how it was very much an icon of a movie. And the amazing thing about it was, even though it had four Academy Award nominations, didn't get any one of them, because the big picture that year that it was up against was Rocky. And so Rocky was the one that got this picture and this one did not. [00:23:45] Speaker A: That's a tough one because their boats are iconic. If I was voting, I would have voted for this because I love Rocky, but I would have voted for this because it's just more my aesthetic and I like more realism. I think taxi driver threw out a wide swath culturally more than Rocky did. But that's just. [00:24:11] Speaker B: You know, I thought this guy was such an amazing contradiction. He is a fascinating character. Know, at times he moralizes himself and he sees himself as, like, this do gooder, but yet he visits these porn houses. And then on the other hand, he lifts these weights to build up his body. That's how he's got this physique, but yet he eats junk food and he pops these pills to stay awake. So I thought he was an interesting study in contrast. [00:24:42] Speaker A: And to your point, I'm going to share this tab right here, because this term was not out, obviously, when this came out. Go and see those of you haven't seen it. And if you know about pulp fiction or you know about. I told Georgia right before I got on, this movie has influenced, like, we were saying, so many things because I just started happening to look at this british crime drama from the 90s, early 90s called Cracker, starring the late Robbie Coltrane. And he's a police profiler. That's when that was really popular back then. But anyway, Robert Carlisle, who we all know, and I'll put up, well, let me pull it up. I'll come back to this. Let me just show you how this movie influenced so many things. So I just showed you de Niro with the Mohawk, okay? Because after he gets rejected by. And I hope I'm not giving it away, but he does get that ain't nothing to give away. You look at Sybil Shepard, Bessie and Travis Bickle, and you ain't got to guess what's going to happen there. But anyway, it's just a catalyst for more rage that's in him. She rejects him, rightfully so, because it wasn't going to go, you know, when you bring a girl to a porno film on a first date, we tend not to like that. And if a girl does like that, guys, I don't know if you might want to keep her around, but that's a story for another day, unless y'all both super freaks. You know, y'all might be. Y'all might be nuclear uber freaks, but here we go. But my point is, Robert Carlisle, this is a picture of him, and I'm going to mute it, but something happens to him. So this got influenced. Taxi driver influenced so many things. So something sets him off, and he literally goes and does a Travis Bickle and shaves his head. And Georgia, it was meant for us to do taxi driver because I had not seen Cracker this show. And this was the episode right before we did this isn't that. Yeah. So he starts tripping. He goes and does this. And so go and look at cracker. This is actually a really good show. It's kind of new to me. And then you'll see later on, he goes full Travis Bickle, man. Here he goes now, and there he is with the fatigues and stuff. I mean, it's almost the exact same outfit. And then he goes to this poor pakistani man's shop and sets it off and all this kind of stuff. So he is Travis Bickle at this point. So it's just so funny. But as you go on with the show, kind of have the Unabomber story into it. So go look at cracker. All this is on YouTube. But anyway, I want to go back to the incel because that's what I kept going to when I saw now seeing it now taxi driver. And I know you didn't, but I kind of felt sorry for Travis Bickle, and I still do. So, incel, a member of an online community of young men who consider themselves unable to attract women sexually, typically associated with views that are hostile toward women and men who are sexually active. Georgia, had you heard of this before? [00:28:21] Speaker B: Yes, I had, actually, but only just recently. [00:28:25] Speaker A: Okay. Yeah. [00:28:26] Speaker B: You do feel sorry for. I mean, but I don't like the violence that they have towards women, though. [00:28:34] Speaker A: Well, but notice Travis Bickle. He didn't do anything to. Didn't. He didn't touch her or anything, whatever. He did something. Betsy adjacent. And you alluded to it earlier on, and I think maybe that was his way to get at Betsy and her ilk. You alluded to it with the. And we're going to wrap it up in a, um. And there's a scene. I was gonna show it, and I'm not gonna show it now. This movie is prophetic because Travis's first act of. And some people say it really wasn't vigilanteism. I think it was, was in another store, a store of a foreigner in New York. And he interacts with a robber. And then after that interaction, the owner of the store comes around and starts beating. And I'm not laughing at it, but life imitated art because he started beating the man, the robber on the ground with a pipe or whatever. And for those of you who've seen it, I was going to show it. You already know what I'm talking about when this actually happened in real life, George. I got to show it. [00:29:59] Speaker B: Go for. [00:30:02] Speaker A: Youtuber. The YouTube trolls, the YouTube people. What else? Why are you getting on me? And whatever you welcome to strike it or whatever, but those of you, you all know what I'm talking about. When this happened, this scene literally happened in taxi driver, guys. So I will mute it and just take a look at it. So those of you who are listening online, what I'm showing is not funny. Anyway, this scene literally happened in Taxi driver. And I almost died when I saw that. I almost died. So, Georgia, did it show up on the screen? [00:30:48] Speaker B: No, it. [00:30:49] Speaker A: Oh, maybe it wasn't dog on it. Let me go find it again. I thought I hit the. When the people, the store owner started beating up the robber, I thought I was going to die. I thought I was going to die because that actually happened. And maybe it wasn't meant for me to show it, but go and look at taxi driver, then go and type in stole owners, beat robber. And I was like, oh, man, he stole owners. They saw taxi driver. They were mad as hell and they weren't going to take it anymore. And I fell out laughing. But, guys, I love the movie. If you can't know, George and I, we have know it's fine that we can disagree, have a different aesthetic, and that's fine as well. It cracked me up. I love the movie. It was gritty. Y'all know I hate happy endings. I love more realistic movies. I can see why it was such a great influence. Scorsese and De Niro, I know they have some new stuff out. I haven't seen it. It's on Netflix or one of streaming channels. Killers of the Flower moon. So when those two get together, you're usually going to get a good product. Okay. So you really can't go wrong with those two. But yeah. Written by Paul Schrader. And he said it was in a dark time in his life. Duh. And he come dumping all his darkness on us. I love it. I love this movie. And I was so happy to see it again. I'm sorry you didn't like it, Georgia, I will try to be more sensitive to your sensibilities next time, ma'am. I really will. Well, Georgia, I'm going to let you have the last word. And we're going to get on out. [00:32:37] Speaker B: Of, you know, interestingly know, three years after this movie was released and the attempted assassination of President Reagan occurred, because of the publicity that was associated with this movie, Martin Scorsese considered quitting filmmaking because of the bad publicity this movie got. However, I'm glad that he reconsidered and went on to do a lot of other great films. Yes. But I am so glad Moya that we found you, Moya, you deserve credit. You found reasons to make me laugh about this movie. [00:33:16] Speaker A: And it shouldn't be funny. And I can go on about the, this movie was so prophetic because now what we know about, I agree with you. I was triggered about the child sex trafficking of a twelve and this happens all the time. I used to be an abolitionist for the sex trafficking. And it's not just girls, it's boys. And we know unfortunately, what's going on in our country now with immigration. This is a part of it. Don't you sit up here and try to make these platitudes about, oh, well, this is the embrace of the, no, this is a part of it. And look at taxi driver and try to view it through. Nothing has changed. It has gotten worse. That's the last thing I'm going to say. Unfortunately, it has gotten worse. I love that Funky New York backsink background. I love it as the setting, the backdrop. Wonderful. It remind me of home, bourbon Street. I said, oh my gosh, downtown Manhattan and all that stuff that was on the different streets. That's nothing more than bourbon street on steroids. But I was asking my husband, I said, how come we didn't see that when we used to be down? But if you're not into that stuff, and I was really young, I didn't know what I was looking at. It always was there, but I didn't know what it was. But lastly, in the York, and you love them or hate them, Rudy g, he cleaned a lot of that up. So a lot of people don't know this New York, Georgia, this Manhattan and downtown New York. They don't know this. All they know is what they see now with the Lion King and Disney and Broadway. You have to go back and look at these type of movie. They're like time capsules to New York. It was Sodom and Gamora. It was just wild. But thank you all so much for watching and go look at taxi drivers and let us know what you think. And coming up, our 100th episode and who is it featuring? Georgia. What is our movie?
