	Taxi Driver: Its Influence on John Hinckley, Jr.
		Bickle becomes interested in a woman named Betsy who works for a presidential candidate, and tries to attract her attention, but is unsuccessful.
		In Carpenter's words, Hinckley "absorbed the identity of Travis Bickle." Carpenter even believed that when Hinckley took a bus cross-country from Los Angeles, Washington was merely a stopover on his route to Yale, and another attempt to "rescue" Jodie Foster as the film script demanded.
		To the prosecution, Hinckley's identification with Bickle was conscious, not unconscious.

	Old Gold & Black > What is it that makes Travis Bickle tick? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Travis voices his societal concerns through a series of inner monologues that we, as the audience, are permitted to hear.
		Travis falls for Betsy and momentarily shifts his obsessive impulses away from the vices of New York, yet the relationship proves temporary once he takes her on an ill-fated date to a porno movie.
		Of course Travis tries to explain that he is merely socially inept, and of course Betsy is not terribly willing to discuss that fact with him.

		The scene where his character and Iris dance is improvised, and is one of only two scenes in the film that don't focus on Bickle.
		Travis Bickle: I ride around most nights - subways, buses - but you know, if I'm gonna do that I might as well get paid for it.
		He has yet to top his stunning performance here as the deeply disturbed and alienated Vietnam veteran Travis Bickle, cabbie and would be assassin.

		Travis was named the 30th greatest film villain in AFI's top 50 movie villains of all time.

	Meet Travis Bickle - DimFuture
		Unfortunately, Travis Bickle has no interest in what does or does not interest me. I exist only as a sounding board for his endless talk about knives and (as I would later learn) guns, bombs, kickboxing, exercise, knives, bombs, guns, kickboxing, bombs, guns, knives, and bombs.

	THE LAST TEMPTATION OF TRAVIS BICKLE
		Travis moves his hand in three overhead shots: when he takes the employment forms in the opening sequence, when he pays the candy girl at the porno theater and when he sweeps across Betsy's desk in a circular movement.
		Travis lay slumped on the couch in Iris' room, one bullet in the neck and one in the right shoulder, though he may have been shot elsewhere by Sport or the gangster who came out of Iris' room.
		The burnt flowers, Travis' message to Iris] rather indicate a suicidal ritual that precedes the meticulous preparation for a killing; and in the middle of the blood stains in the hotel actually dies the old Travis, whose wounded leg already gives a cadaverous rigidity.

	Taxi Driver DVD Review at The Z Review UK DVD reviews
		Bickle decides that all his life needs is a "sense of someplace to go." He finds it in what is probably the most brilliant and important scene in the film.
		Bickle does not say a word the entire scene, but he has connected with the man completely.
		Travis remains, moving, unseen by the world, burning, ticking, spinning, the vortex in his heart continuing to swirl.

	Citizen Bickle, or the Allusive Taxi Driver: Uses of Intertextuality
		Travis eats bread soaked in peach brandy, which is a perversion of Bresson's saintly priest in Le Journal d'un Curé de campagne (Diary of a Country Priest, 1951) subsisting entirely on the Eucharist: bread soaked in wine.
		When Travis returns to kill Sport, he has shaven his hair into a Mohawk, which can be explained in terms of the film's Vietnam subtext, but also resembles Ethan's transgression of his own society's mores in order to “save” it.
		Travis alienates Betsy through his own actions, and Betsy is lost to him (although at the end the possibility for a rapprochement is implied, and immediately abandoned by Bickle).

		Travis is standing outside waiting on The Wiz, some pimps walk by and he's staring at them coldly, there's nothing but red color and DeNiro looks EXACTLY like Frank.
		Bickle was crazy but again Frank is a machine (not literally) and has all the training.
		Bickle was fueled by the "scum" he would see in the streets as a taxi driver and wanted to clean up new york city, thats all he was running on.

	Taxi Driver (1976) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Travis Bickle (Robert De Niro), an enigmatic, 20th century loner enters into the personnel office of a cab company.
		Following a daily (and nightly) monotonous routine, Travis writes in his diary as the camera pans across the interior of his squalid, welfare-style, studio apartment.
		Although disgusted by his sleazy environment, Bickle is attracted to the low life during the day, and - by choice - rides through the same scenes of degradation at night in his self-loathing occupation.

		Bickle is a self-appointed vigilante who views his urban beat as an intolerable cesspool of blighted humanity.
		Travis continues to justify his own behavior and viewpoint to the last, and grants himself a kind of sainthood -- beatified by the press, Iris' parents, and Betsy's acquiescence.
		Bickle is a "walking contradiction" whereas he sees the world as evil and wrong, but in his attempts at being accepted, he finds himself bending the rules of morality and becoming what he despises.

	anguish of God's lonely men: Dostoevsky's Underground man and Scorsese's Travis Bickle, The Renascence - Find Articles
		Both works construct what Burton Pike terms a "literary city" or "word-city"-that is, an archetypal topos in a narrative of the individual and the mass, where the "mass" forms "a peculiar kind of anti-community within the dissociated culture" (Pike 100).
		Dostoevsky's The Underground Man and Scorsese's Travis Bickle, the protagonists of the two novels, see metropolitan society as an earthly hell in an age of a dying or already dead God (or gods).
		If Travis Bickle fits into the paradigm of Dostoevsky's underground "antihero," then our reading of Travis gains greater depth both in pure critical terms and in terms of the history of narrative.

	Assassination of Richard Nixon, The (2004): Reviews
		The brilliant subtleties of this absorbing, must-see drama are best seen through Penn, who transforms a strongly nuanced script into the greatest performance of the year.
		Director Niels Mueller's attempt to create a middle-class "Taxi Driver" (he tips his hand a bit smugly by respelling Byck's name to evoke Travis Bickle) has a creepy, meticulous exactitude.
		Penn's lead performance is the main attraction here, and it's a fine piece of work--far superior to his overly showy Oscar-winning role last year.
