The wait is over! Finishing off the third season, we have three more episodes to be released over the next three days… the first one here is the 1976 Martin Scorsese / Robert De Niro film: Taxi Driver. Considered one of the best films of all time, Nick brings on two New York-based filmmakers, Sid Gopinath and Aditya Joshi, who also happen to be two of the groomsmen at Nick’s brother’s wedding! Recorded back on the actual wedding day as they sit in their tuxes waiting for the ceremony, Nick, Sid, and Aditya have a fascination conversation PLUS discuss at length its comparisons to the 11-time Oscar nominated ‘Joker’ and how one shines over the other.
Other points of discussion in this episode are its overall message, the subtlety in what it is trying to say, its portrayal of New York, whether mental illness is being represented, why it is considered one of the best movies of all time, and much more!
