Hawkes’ wings are clipped in Taxi Driver’s tight, tense
second re-formation, which manages to achieve an impressive intensity through simplistic
cinematography (carpet ride, aside) and terrifying timeliness. Startlingly
human realism keeps plain-spoken message from becoming too heavy-handed, while
organ-ic religious elements feel appropriately barbed without binding
themselves to cheap mockery.
