There's a comically dispassionate narrator with a radio announcer voice, giving you straight facts like the time of day of the following scene. There's often no music during a scene; instead it stings or quickly fades in/out at the transitions. It's a somewhat strange movie (although it feels perfectly natural while you're watching it). On the one hand, it's a classic pulp crime story in the style of the 30's and 40's. On the other hand, it's an obvious influence for people like Tarantino (especially for Reservoir Dogs). (
