Product description
The composition features a full-length shot of Robert De Niro’s Travis Bickle, hands in his jacket pockets, strolling through a desaturated New York City landscape. Above him, the harsh typography of adult cinema marquees and street signs creates a claustrophobic, urban atmosphere, while the bottom half of the print displays the original theatrical billing and the film’s famous tagline about dreams and nobodies.
This piece evokes the profound isolation of mid-70s Manhattan, a time when the city felt both electric and decaying. It carries the weight of Travis’s internal monologue, reflecting a character out of step with the world around him. The desaturated color palette emphasizes the noir elements of the film, making it more than just a piece of memorabilia; it is a visual representation of urban loneliness and the cinematic grit that defined an entire era of American filmmaking.
Collectors working with crime movie posters tend to reach for pieces like this, often alongside drama movie posters.
