'Taxi driver'
20.05, TCM
USA, 1976 (110 minutes). Director: Martin Scorsese. Cast: Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Harvey Keitel.
Despite the controversy it caused in its time, Taxi Driver's narrative commitment couldn't be more transparent: a hallucinatory journey into a society's moral decay. Its protagonist is a sleepless taxi driver, obsessed with his memories of a former combatant in Vietnam, who uses violence to fill the unrest he experiences under his appearance as a harmless good boy. Martin Scorsese's images, created through a visceral mise-en-scène of unusual power, transform him into a mirror reflecting a dehumanized community.
“The Irish Tavern”
10 p.m., La 2
Donovan's Reef. USA 1963. (108 minutes). Director: John Ford. Cast: John Wayne, Lee Marvin, Elizabeth Allen.
John Wayne's final film, directed by John Ford, is a light but stimulating comedy in which a group of old sailors welcome a rich heiress to their South Seas hideout. A warm and smiling film where the most classic camaraderie lives.
