Homage: The film is a homage to the German Expressionism works of Fritz Lang and F. W. Murnau in its visual presentation. The film is also decidedly Kafkaesque in theme, with the protagonist being awakened by a mob only for it to disappear and him having to wander around looking for them. This is more obvious in Allen's one-act play Death from which the film is based, in which Kleinman ends up dying pointlessly, as opposed to this film, where he survives.

Deliberately Monochrome: Besides being a signature style for some of Allen's movies, the film is in black-and-white as part of its homage to German Expressionism cinema.
