Hinkley
Hinkley While living in Texas, Hinckley had become<b> obsessed </font></b>with the movie Taxi Driver, and, even more so with one of its stars: a young Jodi Foster. After several failed attempts to contact her, he decided to try to impress her by killing a U.S. President, apparently drawing inspiration from Robert De Niro's character in the film. Upon his arrest, Hinckley reportedly asked the officers if the news would disrupt the Academy Awards ceremony, scheduled for that night. The ceremony was indeed postponed until the following night, only the third time in history that the Oscars had failed to go ahead as scheduled. |
