Travis Bickle.
"He's a prophet and a pusher, partly truth, partly fiction, a walking contradiction."
Travis Bickle: "Listen, you fuckers, you screwheads. Here is a man who would not take it anymore. A man who stood up against the scum, the cunts, the dogs, the filth, the shit. Here is a man who stood up."
Taxi Driver is a truly marvellous film. Watched it twice already and yet I'm just itching to get the DVD. I wish I could be like Travis Bickle. The perfect anti-hero. Who needs a villain when the line between good and bad is so blur, even in reality.
We're so full of shit that we don't like to be called hypocrites. Instead, we invent a nicer term for it and now we call ourselves contradictory.
