interesting to see the different perspectives here. i totally have to evaluate this according to its context and place in time.
I like the aesthetics of the film. and really am into its main themes : alienation, frustration, like the screenwriter puts it "not being able to have what you want and not wanting what you can easily get".
My fave scene is the small talking with the fellow cabbie where you can see him losing entirely " you know i really wanna... i wanna... you know sometimes i have bad ideas in my head, like i really wanna... do something you know".
i can see myself in a similar state of mind in my very early twenties.
i didn't kill anybody though.
not yet.
