Taxi was driving through the mist against the black background. Then the mist expanded. From Travis Bickle's eyes, we can feel that the streets full of the neon-lit were like a hell, strange and horrible.

During his work time, he saw the "scum" on the streets every day; he even encountered the passengers who have had violent sex on his taxi.
