Anyone hear the plans for Taxi Driver 2?
Jodie Foster, the 47 year old Iris, is now an FBI agent who’s devoted her life to hunting down pimps who draw helpless young girls into prostitution. One day, she’s undercover at a porn theater when she runs into Travis Bickle. He recognizes her and calls to her by name, much to the surprise of the business associates she’s with. He unwittingly gave her up. The next day she vanishes. Bickle goes down to the station to say who he saw her with. Her stubborn boss says, “You’re lying, you fat loser! You just want to relive the old days of shooting up pimps and saving little girls. But you’re not that man anymore! You’re a fat, useless pig!”
So, he starts working out again. He gets back in shape. He sees the man she was with on the street (Leonardo Dicaprio), and follows him. So, he goes undercover and gets in with the sex trafficking racket, hoping to find out what happened to Iris. Anyway, the rest kind of plays out like Quantum of Solace.
