I'm not sure what to make of these coincidences, but just as we're discussing The Searchers and Taxi Driver, two things happen:
1) Jodie Foster's The Brave One (a vengeance-themed film centered on an interracial relationship) appears in theaters . . .
("You talkin' to me?" Why, yes, I think she is.)
2) and two taxi cabs mysteriously burst into flames in New York City
Re: The Brave One, the Alliance of Women Film Journalists asks "Are Women Taking Vengeance on Celluloid?" (provocative ambiguity in that sentence structure!) and points out that several of the recent female-avenger films were developed, if not directed, by women.
