Gosh, how can I start? I watched this for the first time because my music teacher didn't know what to do as the school was ending. Unfortunately, we only had one hour a week so we couldn't watch it one-shot. I (an intellectual) ordered the Blu-Ray the day before so, when I went home, I finished it. Saying I fell in love with this is saying the less. This really is such a masterpiece, and few movies like this exist…
Oh, I can't fucking believe it. Is there a more problematic, mentally unstable, always over the top character than Travis? Well, I don't know but from what I've seen I don't think so. And this all because a girl didn't want to go out with him anymore after a date at the porn theater? (well, I wouldn't have guessed) Anyway, Taxi Driver is fucking mind-blowing. The insight we see of Travis throughout the movie is phenomenal and extremely well written…
So beautiful. The way the movie plays with the various narratives, going through different POVs, and never giving us a real scene from a exterior point of view is meticulous, eventually making you choose whom to believe. Also, I like how it felt like a reality show, as if we were somethinv like the Big Brother, looking into the real problems of this way. The dialogue is fantastic, Triet's directing is fantastic, and so is Machado-Graner's performance, but I can't explain in words how good Sandra fucking Hüller was in this movie. Unbelievably wonderful.
