Original Columbia Pictures One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Martin Scorsese classic thriller, TAXI DRIVER (1976) starring Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster, Cybill Shepherd, and Harvey Keitel. Art by Belgian airbrush artist Guy Peelleart . This wonderful piece of cinema history deals with a mentally unstable Vietnam veteran (De Niro), who works as a nighttime taxi driver in New York City, where decadence and sleaze feed his overwhelming desire to lash out and also to save a teenage prostitute (Foster). In this masterpiece of urban alienation, Paul Schrader’s iconic script paints a portrait of hopeless loneliness in the largest city in the world. The film was nominated for four Academy Awards—including Best Picture, Best Original Score for Bernard Hermann, Best Actress for Foster, and Best Actor for De Niro. This original one sheet poster was folded slightly irregularly, but has no fold separations and is, overall, a very fine example of the poster. Would look stellar linen backed.
