In the [VID] Video ‘ If I were you - LAS VEGAS NEW YORK BLACKPOOL’ the camera follows three Robert de Niro impersonators. Each of the three chapters in the [VID] Video is about a different Robert de Niro impersonator, who also lives in one of these cities. The movie “Taxi Driver” (1974) by Martin Scorsese serves as reference for the [VID] Video using quotes, original soundtrack and re-enactments. The well-known “Are you talkin’ to me” mirror scene of “Taxi Driver” became a motif for the [VID] Video and a metaphor for duplication and identification with the other as movie character. In the [VID] Video all the different identities, which are the movie character, Robert De Niro, the impersonators and the camera, overlap. The aspect of the duplication resumes in the three cities where the impersonators live. Blackpool can be seen as a look-alike in its similarity to Las Vegas, whereas in Las Vegas the [VID] Video shoots only the replica of a Manhattan Skyline. Furthermore one De Niro impersonator haunts some of the original film locations in New York City, where “Taxi Driver” was originally filmed.
