Taxi Driver

Not really car related TV but I just watched Scorsese's Taxi Driver for the first time. Even though it was 1970s cheese it was a really good flick.

Observations:

I was surprised to see Scorsese have a cameo as the twisted freak vengeful husband. Wonder if that inspired Tarentino?

It was also interesting seeing Dinero, Scorsese, Sybil Shepherd and Harvey Kietel so young looking.

The clothing was humorous. The language was filthy.

1970s NYC was really scummy.

The Checker Cab is still cool. Wish they still made them. :(

I never thought 1970s cars were cool but some of them were pretty pimpin'. Doubt most of the 80s cars will ever be desireable though.

But you were born in 1971 ::Afro::

Welcome to my world ::OldMan:: The clothes were not funny they were funky

It was a good flick and most of the movies from that era had filthy language.

BORN IN 1971, GEEZ........I was in the Marines in 71.
Don't worry about actors or actresses looking so young. You'll see them looking older as you age right along with them!
It really puts things in perspective when you see and actor, like DeNiro looking old and realize you're the same age!
:D
