Fatness is the beginning, though not the end, of Taxi Driver's problems. For one thing, Travis is more a case study than a character. The backgrounds against which he moves never transcend the documentary category, never fuse into an artful vision of urban hellishness. Scorsese's work may be best-of-breed, but it is a familiar breed. The movie has an air of recent discovery, of shocked innocence about the tawdry quality of city life that is gratingly naive...

...surprisingly lyrical composer. Paula Robinson, who directed a recent Harvard Chamber Players performance of Differences, likened Berio to "a troubadour being harassed by machines, yet still loving them."

...movies which one could froth happily at the mouth about (punishment for exceeding quota: a month at Judith Crist's movie camp with continuous showings of At Long Last Love) M. would be a picture to stand by. Fritz Lang's direction turns the cinema into images which fuse with one's own societal paranoia. There are a whole list of things which you may never do again after seeing M and a few of them are: whistle the Peer Gynt Suite, allow a kid to walk to school without an armed guard, see a floating balloon and not wonder...
