Jackie and Greg prowl the streets of a nocturnal New York City for Martin Scorsese's TAXI DRIVER from 1976. Topics of discussion include the relationship between Scorsese and Paul Schrader's work, its numerous cinematic references, De Niro's shifty performance, and Bernard Herrmann's haunting score.
