Tom Hooper: 10 Great Films by 10 Great Directors That Inspired Me as a Teenager6 of 10
Taxi Driver by Martin Scorsese
How to choose between Taxi Driver and Raging Bull? I saw this in Paris, which luckily had a great tradition of continuously playing the classics on the big screen. Scorsese takes on a subject trapped behind the wheel of a taxi and sets him free with extraordinary poetic restless camera movement and builds the tension brilliantly to the climax. New York was never the same again.
