Everything but the ending seemed real. The ending is that he is funny on tv, gets a light sentence, released early, writes a successful book and comes off as a genius kidnapping Lewis to get on the stage.

Throughout the rest of the movie he is a loser with no redeeming qualities. Di Nero is nothing like himself. Lewis plays himself.

I forgot how taxi driver ended. I do remember there was nothing like it before that I had ever seen. It also seemed pretty real to me from start to finish.

I do appreciate you finding the movie and giving us the link. Scorsese is a great director and if you find any other films on youtube I would be grateful if you passed it on.
