Robert De Niro says that Donald Trump is like the main character of the legendary 1976 movie Taxi Driver, the mentally disturbed Travis Bickle.Rico says it's, unfortunately, a good comparison...
During a question-and answer session at the Sarajevo Film Festival, De Niro said, like Bickle, the Republican presidential candidate is where he shouldn’t be. “God help us,” he added.
De Niro says the media, which he claims has given Trump too much attention, are now starting to say “come on Donald, this is ridiculous, this is nuts, this is insane.”
At the end of Taxi Driver, Bickle goes back being a cab driver, De Niro noted.
He opened the 22nd Sarajevo Film Festival on Friday, presented Martin Scorsese’s restored Taxi Driver, and received the festival’s first lifetime achievement award.
