Steve Schapiro. Taxi Driver Book

You talkin' to me? This title features previously unseen photographs from Scorsese's masterpiece. Taxi Driver has long been regarded as a cinematic milestone, and Robert DeNiro's portrait of a trigger-happy psychopath with a mohawk is widely believed to be one of the greatest performances ever filmed. Time magazine includes the film in its list of 100 Greatest Movies, saying: The power of Scorsese's filmmaking grows ever more punishing with the passage of time. Steve Schapiro - whose photographs were featured in TASCHEN's Godfather Family Album - was the special photographer on the set of Taxi Driver, capturing the film's most intense and violent moments from behind the scenes. This book - more than a film still book but a pure photo book on its own - features hundreds of unseen images selected from Schapiro's archives, painting a chilling portrait of a deranged gunman in the angry climate of the post-Vietnam era.Read More
