De Niro's character in Taxi Driver intended to assassinate a presidential candidate. In 1981, John Hinckley, Jr. shot U.S. President Ronald Reagan and three other people. He claimed his motive was to impress Foster. She gained significant weight while at Yale and, after several unsuccessful films post-Taxi Driver, was forced to audition for her role in The Accused.

She earned her second for her role as Clarice Starling, opposite Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter, in the 1991 film, The Silence of the Lambs.
