This will conclude my Taxi Driver blog. I enjoyed putting it together very much. I found things in the film that I had never noticed and rediscovered things that I had long forgotten.
One thing has stayed the same, though, Taxi Driver is still one of my favorite films of all time. I've seen it nearly twenty times and it never gets old.
Purely as a fan, I'd love to see a sequel, but not some sort of self-ingratiating trash that turns Travis into Dirty Harry. I'd like to see something like Scorsese did with The Color of Money, but he didn't direct The Hustler. That being said, who could take the helm to finish Travis's story? Who would write it? Would De Niro even be interested?
The answer to all of these questions is nobody and no, but it's nice to wonder about.
