Line 23:
* [[Devil in Plain Sight]]
* [[Executive Meddling]]: Which he never outright stated it, it's clear that [[Charles Laughton]] had a different ending intended than the one that was seen on-screen, which borders almost on a [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment|BLAM]] at times. Because of the Hays Code, he had to make hasty edits to make it up to their standards.
* [[Expy]]: Many villains are based on Mitchum's performance as Powell, such as Kane from ''[[Poltergeist|Poltergeist II: The Other Side]]'' and Caleb from [[Buffy the Vampire Slayer]]. Even ''[[The Simpsons (animation)|The Simpsons]]''' Sideshow Bob gets in on the action in one episode, and [[The Clash]] give him a [[Shout-Out]] in "Death or Glory".
* [[Fille Fatale]]: Ruby, who has some serious psychological problems.
* [[Flashback Echo]]: Done more subtly than many recent cases. At the end of the film when {{spoiler|Harry is being arrested}}, John's freak-out, begging them not to take him away, and {{spoiler|throwing the money}}, echoes what he was feeling but didn't fully express when his father was being arrested at the [[Book Ends|beginning of the film.]]
