Guest Speaker: Richard Schickel - Film Critic & author of Conversations With Scorsese
Members $10 Public $14
Includes Reception & Book Signing
Film critic and author Richard Schickel first started interviewing acclaimed filmmaker
Martin Scorsese in 2004. Schickel's insightful questions and Scorsese's growing
comfort with his collaborator on this project over the subsequent years has resulted in a
fascinating new book, Conversations with Scorsese, that will surely stand as one of the
most illuminating works ever published about this brilliant American filmmaker. Join us
for a special evening with Richard Schickel as he presents a screening of a rare archival
35mm print of Taxi Driver, Scorsese's iconic 1976 masterpiece about Travis Bickle
(Robert DeNiro), an alienated cab driver caught in New York City's maelstrom of sex and
violence. Jodie Foster and Cybill Shepherd star as the teenage runaway prostitute and
the chic political operative who become the focus of the obsession that propels Travis
towards a shocking act of murder. (USA, 1976, 113 min.,
