[Taxi driver--film portrait of the insomniac].
Martin Scorsese's film "Taxi Driver" from 1976 is a cinematic masterpiece. The main character cannot sleep. His condition is caused by inner restlessness and external commotion. The film shows us New York City's brutal nightlife through the distorted mind of a taxi driver.
