Goodfellas (1990), Cape Fear (1991), and Casino (1995). - His iconic performance in Taxi Driver as Travis Bickle clinched his status as
one the finest actors of his generation and he became renowned for his improvised monologue, including the
famous line, “You talkin’ to me?” in the film. - De Niro won an Oscar for Best Supporting
Actor for his portrayal of the young Vito
Corleone in The Godfather Part II (1974). - The actor went through gruelling training
