I think others have mention the connection between Diary of a Country
Priest and Taxi Driver. And yes Schrader's book is great. One
should also see his American Gigglo with Bresson's 'Pickpocket.' By
the way saw Schrader's 'Auto-Focus' and it is the one 2002 film that
got under my skin. I even had dreams about it!
