Taxi Driver VHS 1985 - VGA 90+ NM+/MT, Slipcase, Vertical Overlap Seal, Side White RCA Columbia Pictures Home Video Watermarks, Bottom White RCA/Columbia Pictures Sticker-Seal, RCA Columbia Pictures Home Video. Taxi Driver, directed by Martin Scorsese and starring Robert De Niro, is a gritty and influential film that follows Travis Bickle, a mentally unstable Vietnam War veteran who becomes a taxi driver in the seedy underbelly of 1970s New York City. The film explores themes of urban alienation, loneliness, and the blurred line between sanity and madness. Robert De Niro's intense and transformative performance as Travis Bickle garnered widespread acclaim, earning him an Academy Award nomination and solidifying his status as one of Hollywood's most versatile actors. Meanwhile, Martin Scorsese's direction and Paul Schrader's screenplay contributed to the film's enduring impact on popular culture, influencing subsequent generations of filmmakers and leaving an indelible mark on the cinematic landscape. Taxi Driver remains a powerful exploration of the human psyche and a landmark in American cinema.

This stunning factory sealed VHS copy of Taxi Driver comes in the 1985 dated RCA Columbia slipcase with side watermarks and bottom sticker seal. This is a variation of the 1985 side-loading full-box release that would have been released around 1987 after RCA Columbia Pictures switched to more traditional slipcases. The 1985 copies followed the unbelievably rare 1982 Columbia Pictures first release of the film. This copy has received an impressive overall grade of 90+ by VGA, with a Box subgrade of 90 and a Seal subgrade of 90.
