One of the saddest scenes in Taxi Driver (1976) is just two people having breakfast. Travis has brought Iris to a diner because he wants to convince her to leave Sport. He expects the situation to be obvious: she is a child, Sport is exploiting her, and going home should be the easiest decision in the world. Iris does not experience it that way. She talks about Sport as if he were a boyfriend. She brings up astrology, defends him and brushes off Travis’s concern. None of this means she understands what is happening to her. It means she has already learned how to make it sound normal. That is the most disturbing part of the conversation. Iris describes exploitation using the language of love, loyalty and freedom. Then she pours sugar over her jelly. It lasts only a second, but it breaks through the whole performance. Iris may wear sunglasses, speak in street slang and insist that she can make her own decisions, but she still eats breakfast like a kid. Jodie Foster never pushes the moment. Iris is not presented as a helpless symbol waiting to be rescued. She is funny, stubborn, suspicious and sometimes more socially aware than Travis. Then a small gesture reminds you how young she really is. Travis is unusually gentle with her. He listens. He lowers his voice. He gives her money and tries, in his broken way, to offer an escape. He is also imagining himself as her savior. That is the danger underneath his concern. Travis correctly sees that Iris needs help, but he cannot help anyone without turning the situation into a story about himself. Her rescue becomes another chance for him to prove that he has a purpose. Knowing what comes later makes the quietness of the diner difficult to watch. Here, Travis looks almost capable of helping her like a normal person. Later, he enters the building with guns and leaves bodies behind him. The film never asks us to choose between the two versions of him. His concern for Iris may be genuine. So is his desire for violence. He can recognize that a child is being harmed, but he cannot imagine saving her without becoming the hero of a bloodbath. For a few minutes over breakfast, Travis almost looks like someone Iris could trust. Almost.
