Taxi Driver: Part 1

Robin and Carolina stay in the depths of New York City, this time looking at all-time loser incel Travis Bickle in Martin Scorsese's seminal Taxi Driver. There was so much to say that, for the first time, the episode will be split into two parts.Politics include: Bobby de Niro raging his own Vietnam War on the streets of New York during the grossest-looking bin strike; young prostitute Iris creeping the heck out of viewers; the slimy US politics of the mid 1970s, which have not changed all that much; and a load of over-glamourised military paraphernalia. You will hopefully be able to see us as well as hear us, and we would love to know what you think, so please leave a comment wherever you're listening to this!If you like what you hear, please rate and subscribe to the show wherever you're listening, it will help others find the pod.You will hopefully be able to see us as well as hear us, and we would love to know what you think, so please leave a comment wherever you're listening to this!Follow us on:Instagram @ministryoffilmpodBluesky @ministryoffilmpod.bskyb.social
