Altman set the mise-en-scene with many movie posters as a running commentary on the story. I noted posters with titles such as "They Made Me a Criminal", "Hollywood Story", "Laura" (which is a murder investigation focused movie), "Prison Break", "Murder in the Big House", "King Kong", "Highly Dangerous", and "Dial M For Murder". Each is noteworthy and it's interesting that I noted no posters that didn't fit the scene themes.
